When in AVR standby mode or when recording is paused, the recording indicator and the recording icon on the display flash. • The first syllable or two may be lost when you start recording because this 'sound' is used to turn on the AVR feature. It is a good practice to make some 'sounds' or say a short word to activate the AVR before you begin actual dictation. • You can record up to 200 files in one folder. When the maximum limit is reached, MAXIMUM FILES REACHED IN SELECTED FOLDER will be shown. • When the maximum limit of the player's internal memory is reached, MEMORY FULL will be shown. • The remain recording time is shown on the display in STOP mode. • The screen will be turned off automatically after one minute of elapsed record time.
