Installation Location and Handling

1
This section describes precautions for installation location and handling. We recommend that you read this section prior to using this machine.

Installation Precautions

Avoid Installing the Machine in the Following Locations
Avoid locations subject to temperature and humidity extremes, whether low or high.
For example, avoid installing the machine near water faucets, hot water heaters, humidifiers, air conditioners, heaters, or stoves.
Before You Start Using This Machine
Avoid installing the machine in direct sunlight.
If this is unavoidable, use curtains to shade the machine. Be sure that the curtains do not block the machine's ventilation slots or louvers, or interfere with the electrical cord or power supply.
1-2
Installation Location and Handling
Avoid poorly ventilated locations.
This machine generates a slight amount of ozone during normal use. Although sensitivity to ozone may vary, this amount is not harmful. Ozone may be more noticeable during extended use or long production runs, especially in poorly ventilated rooms. It is recommended that the room be appropriately ventilated, sufficient to maintain a comfortable working environment, in areas of machine operation.
Avoid locations where a considerable amount of dust accumulates.
Avoid locations where ammonia gas is emitted.
1
Before You Start Using This Machine
Avoid locations near volatile or flammable materials, such as alcohol or
paint thinner.
Avoid locations that are subject to vibration.
For example, avoid installing the machine on unstable floors or stands.
Installation Location and Handling
1-3
Avoid exposing the machine to rapid changes in temperature.
If the room in which the machine is installed is cold but rapidly heated, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the machine. This may result in a noticeable degradation in the quality of the copied image, the inability to properly scan an original, or the copies having no printed image at all.
1
Avoid installing the machine near computers or other precision electronic equipment.
Electrical interference and vibrations generated by the machine during printing can adversely affect the operation of such equipment.
Before You Start Using This Machine
Avoid installing the machine near televisions, radios, or similar electronic equipment.
The machine might interfere with sound and picture signal reception. Insert the power plug into a dedicated power outlet, and maintain as much space as possible between the machine and other electronic equipment.
Do not remove the machine's leveling feet.
Do not remove the machine's leveling feet after the machine has been installed. If you put weight on the front of the machine while the drawers or units within the machine are pulled out, the machine may fall forward. To prevent this from happening, make sure that the machine's leveling feet are in place.
1-4
Installation Location and Handling
Select a Safe Power Supply
Plug the machine into a 120 V AC outlet.
Make sure that the power supply for the machine is safe, and has a steady
voltage.
Do not connect other electrical equipment to the same power outlet to
which the machine is connected.
Do not connect the power cord to a multiplug power strip, as this may
cause a fire or electrical shock.
The power cord may become damaged if it is often stepped on or if heavy
objects are placed on it. Continued use of a damaged power cord can lead to an accident, such as a fire or electrical shock.
1
Before You Start Using This Machine
Moving the Machine
If you intend to move the machine, even to a location on the same floor of
your building, contact your local authorized Canon dealer beforehand. Do not attempt to move the machine yourself.

Handling Precautions

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the machine.
1
Some parts inside the machine are subject to high-voltages and temperatures. Take adequate precautions when inspecting the inside of the machine. Do not carry out any inspections not described in this manual.
Before You Start Using This Machine
Be careful not to spill liquid or drop any foreign objects, such as paper clips or staples inside the machine. If a foreign object comes into contact with electrical parts inside the machine, it might cause a short circuit and result in a fire or electrical shock.
1-6
Installation Location and Handling
If there is smoke, or unusual noise, immediately turn the main power
switch OFF, disconnect the power cord from the outlet, and call your local authorized Canon dealer. Using the machine in this state may cause a fire or electrical shock. Also, avoid placing objects around the power plug so that the machine can be disconnected whenever necessary.
Do not turn the main power switch OFF or open the front covers while the
machine is in operation. This might result in paper jams.
Do not use flammable sprays, such as spray glue, near the machine. There
is a danger of ignition.

This machine generates a slight amount of ozone during normal use. Although sensitivity to ozone may vary, this amount is not harmful. Ozone may be more noticeable during extended use or long production runs, especially in poorly ventilated rooms. It is recommended that the room be appropriately ventilated, sufficient to maintain a comfortable working environment, in areas of machine operation.
1
For safety reasons, turn OFF the control panel power switch of the machine when it will not be used for a long period of time, such as overnight. As an added safety measure, turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect the power cord when the machine will not be used for an extended period of time, such as during consecutive holidays.
