place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a
danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on
the internal mechanism, making correct operation erratic or
impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for
one or two hours with the power turned on. The unit will
stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.
