After this, you can input Kanji and Kana using the 26-key QWERTY keyboard. The 26-key keyboard is recommended for easier text input.

6.4 SD Card Issues

Problem: SD card cannot be inserted.

Solution: Check the insertion direction. Ensure the side with text is facing outwards and align it correctly before inserting. Do not force the card.

Problem: SD card is inserted but not recognized.
