HOLD
If you set the recorder to HOLD mode, the running
conditions will be preserved, and all buttons will be
disabled. This feature is useful when the recorder
has to be carried in a bag or pocket. This mode can
also prevent you from accidentally stopping the
recording.
Set the recorder to HOLD mode
Slide the POWER/HOLD switch to the
[ HOLD ] position.
• After the recorder is set to HOLD mode, the [ Hold ]
message will be displayed.
Exit HOLD mode
Slide the POWER/HOLD switch to the A
position.
Notes
• If any button is pressed during HOLD mode, the
clock will be displayed for 2 seconds, but the
recorder will not be operable.
• If HOLD mode is entered during playback or
recording mode, the recorder will not be operable
but the playback/recording will continue (When
playback has ended or the recording has ended
due to the remaining memory being used up, it
will stop).
When the recorder is not being used, turn the power
off to reduce battery consumption to a minimum.

Turning off the power
Slide the POWER/HOLD switch to the
direction of the arrow, and hold it for 0.5
seconds or longer.
