Avoiding water and moisture

Note that condensation may form temporarily in cases such as when the player is moved quickly from a low-temperature environment to a high temperature environment or used in a room that has a heater just turned on. Condensation creates a phenomenon where moisture in the air adheres to surfaces such as metal panels, etc., and then changes to liquid. If condensation forms in the Reader, leave it turned off until the condensation disappears. If you use the Reader with condensation present, a malfunction may result.

The Reader is not waterproof. Remember to follow the precautions below.
