Beware of Condensation
When the player (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place or is used after a
sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation.Water vapor in the air could
condense on the mechanism or the laser pickup. If droplets of water form on these parts, cor-
rect playback will be impossible because the laser cannot read the information from the disc
correctly.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 stabilise at the temperature of its surroundings.
