BEFORE USING
Condensation
Setup Precautions
2
Condensation
Condensation can be seen as water droplets that
have formed on the windows of a heated room in
winter.
2
Conditions for the Formation of Condensation
In winter, when the unit is brought from outdoors
to a warm indoor location, or when the room
temperature is suddenly raised by a heater,
condensation will form on the operating parts
within the unit and normal operation will no longer
be possible.
Condensation can also form in summer when the
breeze from an air conditioner strikes the unit
directly. Should this occur, change the setup
location of the unit.
2
Measures to Take After Condensation Forms
• If condensation has formed, switch on the
power and leave the unit for a while. Although
the time will differ according to the surrounding
conditions, the unit should be usable in 1 to 2
hours.
• Should condensation form on the disc, wipe
the disc clean.
