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 device, leave it turned off until the
condensation disappears. If you use the device with
condensation present, a malfunction may result.
•The device is not waterproof. Remember to follow the
precautions below.
– Be careful not to drop the device into a sink or other
container filled with water.
– Do not use the device in humid locations or bad weather,
such as in the rain or snow.
– Do not get the device wet.
If you touch the device with wet hands, or put it in a damp
article of clothing, the device may get wet and this may cause a
malfunction.
