corruption of data recorded on the SD card or damage to the
card itself.

3. Select SD CARD, and then press [ENTER].
4. Select FORMAT, and then press [ENTER].

Initializing the SD card causes the loss of all data on the card.
Song protection settings are also disregarded. Since there is
no way to recover data after initialization, be sure to back up
any important data before initializing.
If you want to copy data from one SD card to another freshly
initialized SD card, back up the first SD card ("Backing Up SD
Cards" (p. 36)), and then recover the backed-up data to the new
SD card ("Recovering Backed Up Data to SD Cards (RECOVERY)"
(p. 37)).
