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 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.
When does the
moisture condensation
occur inside of the
VCP?
