Note on recordingNoise may be recorded if an object, such asyour finger, etc., accidentally rubs or scratchesthe unit during recording.

Maximum recording timeThe maximum recording time of allthe folders is as follows. You can record

messages for the maximum recordingtime in a single folder.

HQ* 59 hr. 45 min.SP** 159 hr. 20 min.

LP*** 261 hr. 45 min.

(hr.: hours/min.: minutes)

* HQ: High quality recording mode(monaural sound)

*** LP: Long play recording mode (monauralsound)

NotesTo record in better sound quality, select

the HQ mode. For switching the recordingmode, see Changing the Recording Modeon page 36.

Before making a long recording, be sure tocheck the battery indicator.

The maximum recording time and thenumber of messages you can make vary

depending on the conditions of use.

When you record messages in the mixtureof HQ, SP and LP modes, the maximumrecording time will be between those for theHQ and LP modes.

Due to the limitation of the IC recordingsystem, this unit records in the minimumrecording unit of approx. 2 seconds at most,therefore the following symptoms mayoccur:

When a message is shorter than theminimum recording unit, it is still countedas approx. 2 seconds at most so theremaining recording time will decreaseby more than the actual length of themessage.

When the message is longer than theminimum recording unit, the remainingrecording time will decrease by morethan the actual length of the messageif it cannot be divided by the minimumrecording unit without a remainder.

The sum of the number on the counter(elapsed recording time) and theremaining recording time may be less thanthe units maximum recording time.
