When the mass memory is reformatted, all data in the

memory is permanently lost. Back up data you want to keep

before formatting the mass memory. You can use Nokia Ovi

Suite to back up data to a compatible computer. Digital rights

management (DRM) technologies may prevent some backup

data from being restored. For more information about DRM

used for your content, contact your service provider.

. Do not format the mass memory using PC software

because it may cause degraded performance.

Formatting does not guarantee that all confidential data

stored in the device mass memory is permanently destroyed.

Standard formatting only marks the formatted area as

available space and deletes the address to find the files again.

The recovery of formatted or even overwritten data may still

be possible with special recovery tools and software.
