- To avoid electrical interference, do not place the machine close to a radio receiver or
television.
- Do not turn the machine off while operating except in the event of a malfunction.
- Turn the machine off in the event of a malfunction.
- If you use adhesive laminate film, do not attach the laminated output to one’s skin, or the
