Sony MZ-RH1 Manual

On moisture condensation

If the recorder is brought directly from a cold 
to a warm location, or is placed in a very 
damp room, moisture may condense inside 
or outside the recorder. Should this occur, the 
recorder will not operate properly.

Moisture condensation occurs easily 

when:

• The recorder is brought from a cold location 

such as a ski slope into a warmly heated 
room.

• The recorder is taken from an air-

conditioned room or car interior to the hot 
outdoors, etc.

How to prevent moisture condensation

When bringing the recorder from a cold place 
to a warm place, seal the recorder in a plastic 
bag and allow it to adapt to conditions at the 
new location over a period of time (about an 
hour).

If moisture condensation occurs

Turn off the recorder and wait about an hour 
for the moisture to evaporate. Make sure the 
moisture has evaporated before using the 
recorder.
