Format mass memory

memory is permanently lost. Back up data you want to
keep before formatting the mass memory. You can use

Office
Nokia Ovi Suite or Nokia Nseries PC Suite to back up
data to a compatible PC. Digital rights management
technologies (DRM) may prevent some backup data
from being restored. Contact your service provider for

mass memory
. 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.
