● About the Memory Cards
To handle Memory Cards with care:
• There are times when static electricity affects Memory Cards.
Before you handle Memory Cards, to reduce the possibility of
static electricity, touch the metal parts such as a door knob and
aluminum sash.
• Be sure to remove the Memory Card from the Memory Card
slot when it is not in use for a long time.
• Do not expose the Memory Card to direct sunlight, extremely
high or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust or liq-
uids.
• Do not place heavy objects on a Memory Card or bend or apply
pressure to the Memory Card in any way.
• Do not touch the metal part (gold) of the Memory Card or put
any metallic plate onto the metal part.
• Do not expose the Memory Card to magnetic fields, such as
those produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since
magnetic fields can partially or completely erase data on the
Memory Card, rendering it unreadable.
• Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to a
Memory Card. Also make sure that labels are attached in the
proper location.
To protect your data (Write-protect):
To prevent inadvertent erasure of important data, stick the write-
protect seal (provided in the Memory Card package) onto the
designated area (within a circle) of the Memory Card.
Conversely speaking, to save data on the Memory Card, make
sure to remove the write-protect seal from the Card.
Do not reuse the seal that is peeled off.
Data Backup
For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you keep
two copies of important data on separate Memory Cards. This
gives you a backup if one Memory Card is lost or damaged.
Installing the security bracket
You can install an optional security bracket to prevent theft of the
memory card. Install the security bracket as needed.
Procedure
1. Be sure that you have the following at hand before starting
the installation.
• Security bracket
• Phillips screwdriver: Magnetic-tipped screwdriver is rec-
ommended.
2. Remove the two screws at either side of the memory card
slot.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two screws from the
locations shown below.
3. Attach the security bracket.
Position the security bracket in the correct orientation (see
illustration below), and use the two screws you removed in
Step 2 to fasten it in place.

If the security bracket is installed, it will not be
