humid environments to avoid the risk of fire
and the risk of electric shock.

etc. or where water may splash onto the
radio.
• If you take the radio from a cold to a warm
environment, condensation may collect
inside the radio. In this case, wait around

adapter if you are not going to use the
radio for some time.
• Do not bring metallic objects into contact
with the connection points on the rear of
the radio. This may cause a short circuit.
