•When used for a long period, the recorder will get hot. If you hold on to the recorder in this state, a low-temperature burn may be caused.

•In places subject to extremely cold temperatures, the temperature of the recorder’s body may be lower than the environmental temperature. If possible, wear gloves when handling the recorder in cold temperatures.
