2.1.4.3 Invalid Characters

Characters with the constituent trait invalid cannot ever appear in a token except under the control of a single escape character. If an invalid character is encountered while an object is being read, an error of type reader-error is signaled. If an invalid character is preceded by a single escape character, it is treated as an alphabetic2 constituent instead.
