CAUTION
If the card is the wrong way up, or backwards, when
inserted into the slot, applying excessive pressure may
damage the slot or the card. Do not force the card in
to avoid damage to the unit or the card, remove and
re-orient the card so that it slides in easily.
2. Close the slide door. With the door opened, the
DP-02CF cannot be used.
NOTE
To use a new CF card, you need to format the card first
(see “Formatting a disk/card” on page 39).
Ejecting the card:
Turn off the power to the unit first, slide the door to open
and remove the card by hand (there is no eject lever on the
unit).
CAUTION
Do not remove the card when the unit is turned on.
Always turn the power off before you take the card
out from the unit.
Starting up the unit

to the power adaptor, and the power cable to the power

phones connected to the unit when switching power
on or off. This will avoid damage to speakers, etc. and
possible damage to your hearing.
