Condensation

Condensation forms in the unit and on the tape following the same principle which is behind the

formation of droplets of water (condensation) on the window panes of a heated room. This

phenomenon occurs when the unit or tape is moved to a location with significantly different

temperature and humidity levels. Condensation forms when:

OThe unit (or tape) is moved to a high-humidity place filled with steam or to a room immediately

after it has been heated up.

OThe unit (or tape) is suddenly moved from a cool place to a place with high temperature and

humidity levels.

When the unit (or tape) has been moved to such a place, do not turn on the power immediately

but leave the unit (or tape) standing for about 10 minutes. When condensation has formed in the

unit, the “– – d – –” error message lights on the counter display, and the cassette tape is

automatically ejected.

Keep the power on, and wait until the error message is cleared.
