properly. Make every effort to ensure that
condensation does not form. If it does form,
take the actions described below.

Condensation takes place when the
ambient temperature or humidity is
changed as follows.
• When this unit is brought inside from the
cold (e.g. a ski slope) to a warm room.
• When this unit is moved from an
air-conditioned car to outside.
• When a cold room has been warmed up
quickly.
• When cool wind from an air conditioner is
directly blown onto this unit.
• After rain showers.

where the air is thick with steam. (e.g. a
heated swimming pool)
Helpful hint
If, for example, you have used this unit for
recording on a ski slope and are taking it into
a heated room, place the unit inside a plastic
bag, remove as much of the air from inside
the bag as possible, then seal the bag.
Leave the unit for about an hour in the room
so the temperature of the unit is close to the
ambient temperature of the room, then use
it.
