places. 
• 
In 
moist, humid locations 
or

as 
right after turning

ly.  If this occurs, remove the tape and let the unit sit with the cassette holder open 
for 
approxi-
mately 
two 
hours before  use. 
(The  entire  display area blinks 
to 
warn  you 
that 
there 
is 
condensation  inside  the  unit.) 
•  Using  headphones 
•  DAT players have such a 
low 
noise level

an 
appropriate level 
to 
protect your ears from excessive shock. 
•  For your safety and the safety

Be 
careful  not 
to
