drum, and cause a failure or even permanent damage.
Take the following steps to prevent this from
happening:

conditions where condensation is likely to form.
•If the HUMID indication is showing, condensation is
present: wait until the HUMID indication disappears,
and then insert a cassette.

formed into the unit.
