IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
MOISTURE CONDENSATION
In the normal temperature, if you pour a cold liquid into a glass, water vapor in the air will condense on the surface of the glass. This is moisture condensation. The moisture condensation may occur inside of VCPs which, if used in this condition, will cause damage to the head and the tape.
When does the moisture condensation occur inside of the VCP?
When moving the VCP from a cold place to heated place.
Or the temperature of surroundings goes up due to room heating switched on.
Or moving the VCP suddenly from air conditioned room to a place of high temperature and/or humidity in summer may cause the dew indicator to light up. Do not use in this condition.
When the moisture condensation occurs inside of the VCP, NEVER insert the cassette into the cassette compartment. Remove the cassette, if loaded, by pressing the STOP/EJECT key. Only operate the VCP after the moisture condensation has completely dried out. Normally, it takes about 2 hours.
