using a USB adaptor. Use a
USB or flash memory type
storage device.
. Take caution to avoid static
electricity discharge when
connecting or disconnecting the
USB. If connection and
disconnection are repeated
many times in a short time, this
may cause a problem in using
the device.
. Operation is not guaranteed if
the connecting terminal of the
USB device is not metal. .

file, the time it takes to recognise
the files may differ. This is not a
problem with the product in this
case, so please wait for the files
to be processed.
. Files in some USB storage
devices may not be recognised
due to compatibility problems,
and connections with a memory
reader or a USB hub are not
