Sony NWZ-W273 Series Formatting

Описание: You can format the built-in flash memory of your Walkman.
Note
*If the memory is formatted, all data (songs, etc., including sample data installed at the factory, supplied software installer and the Help guide) will be erased. Be sure to verify the data stored in memory prior to formatting and export any important data to the hard disk of your computer.

*Be sure not to initialize (format) the built-in flash memory of your Walkman using a computer. If you have formatted with a computer, format again using the Walkman.

*Formatting is available only while playback is paused.

*If the OPR lamp lights up in red due to low remaining battery
power, charge the battery before formatting your Walkman.

*The Media Go software included with your Walkman will also be deleted if the memory is formatted. If you need to reinstall it, download Media Go from the customer support web sites. [Details]

*The settings of shuffle playback, playlist playback, ZAPPIN playback, AVLS (Volume Limit) and volume setting also return to their defaults if the memory is formatted.
