BEWARE OF CONDENSATION
When the player is moved from a cold to a warm place or is used after a sudden temperature
change, there is danger of condensation. Water vapour in the air could condense on the
mechanism. To prevent this, if you are going to use the player in a condition where condensation
could occur, you should leave the player for 1 or 2 hours after plugging it into an AC outlet
depending on the amount of condensation. If this is done, the player will stabilize at the
temperature of its surroundings.
