CAUTION

• Do not install the machine in unstable locations,
such as unsteady platforms or inclined floors, or in
locations subject to excessive vibrations, as this
may cause the machine to fall or tip over, resulting
in personal injury.

• Never block the ventilation slots and louvers on the
machine. These openings are provided for proper
ventilation of working parts inside the machine.
Blocking these openings can cause the machine to
overheat. Never place the machine on a soft
surface, such as a sofa or rug.

• Do not install the machine in the following
locations:

- A damp or dusty location

- A location near water faucets or water

- A location exposed to direct sunlight

- A location subject to high temperatures

- A location near open flames

• Do not remove the machine's leveling feet after the machine has been installed, as this may
cause the machine to fall or tip over, resulting in personal injury.

xiv

Power Supply

WARNING

• Do not damage or modify the power cord. Also, do not place heavy objects on the power
cord, or pull on or excessively bend it, as this could cause electrical damage and result in a
fire or electrical shock.

• Keep the power cord away from a heat source; failure to do this may cause the power cord
coating to melt, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.

• Do not connect or disconnect the power cord with wet hands, as this may result in electrical
shock.

• Do not connect the power cord to a multiplug power strip, as this may cause a fire or
electrical shock.

• Do not bundle up or tie the power cord in a knot, as this may result in a fire or electrical
shock.

• Insert the power plug completely into the power outlet, as failure to do so may result in a fire
or electrical shock.

• Do not use power cords other than the power cord provided, as this may result in a fire or
electrical shock.

• As a general rule, do not use extension cords. Using an extension cord may result in a fire or
electrical shock. If an extension cord must be used, however, use one rated for voltages of
220-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz and over, untie the cord binding, and insert the power plug completely
into the extension cord outlet to ensure a firm connection between the power cord and the
extension cord.

CAUTION

• Do not use power supplies with voltages other than those specified herein, as this may result
in a fire or electrical shock.

• Always grasp the power plug when disconnecting the power cord. Pulling on the power cord
may expose or snap the core wire, or otherwise damage the power cord. If the power cord is
damaged, this could cause current to leak, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.

• Leave sufficient space around the power plug so that it can be unplugged easily. If objects are
placed around the power plug, you will be unable to unplug it in an emergency.

xv

Handling

WARNING

• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the machine. There are high-temperature and
high-voltage components inside the machine which may result in a fire or electrical shock.

• If the machine makes strange noises, or gives off smoke, heat, or strange smells,
immediately turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect the power cord from the power
outlet. Then, contact your local authorized Canon dealer. Continued use of the machine in
this condition may result in a fire or electrical shock.

• Do not use highly flammable sprays near the machine. If gas from these sprays comes into
contact with the electrical components inside the machine, it may result in a fire or electrical
shock.

• To avoid damage to the power cord and creating a fire hazard, always turn OFF the main
power switch, and unplug the interface cable when moving the machine. Otherwise, the
power cord or interface cable may be damaged, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.

• Do not drop paper clips, staples, or other metal objects inside the machine. Also, do not spill
water, liquids, or flammable substances (alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, etc.) inside the
machine. If these items come into contact with a high-voltage area inside the machine, it may
result in a fire or electrical shock. If these items are dropped or spilled inside the machine,
immediately turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect the power cord from the power
outlet. Then, contact your local authorized Canon dealer.

CAUTION

• Do not place heavy objects on the machine, as they may tip over or fall resulting in personal
injury.

• Close the feeder gently to avoid catching your
hands, as this may result in personal injury.

• Do not press down hard on the feeder when using
the platen glass to make copies of thick books.
Doing so may damage the platen glass and result in
personal injury.

• Do not touch the finisher while the machine is
printing, as this may result in personal injury.

xvi

• Turn OFF the control panel power switch for safety when the machine will not be used for a
long period of time, such as overnight. Also, turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect
the power cord for safety when the machine will not be used for an extended period of time,
such as during consecutive holidays.

• Do not place your hand in the part of the tray where stapling is performed when a finisher is
attached, as this may result in personal injury.

Maintenance and Inspections

WARNING

• When cleaning the machine, first turn OFF the main power switch, then disconnect the power
cord. Failure to observe these steps may result in a fire or electrical shock.

• Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet regularly, and clean the area around the
base of the power plug's metal pins and the power outlet with a dry cloth to ensure that all
dust and grime is removed. If the power cord is connected for a long period of time in a damp,
dusty, or smoky location, dust can build up around the power plug and become damp. This
may cause a short circuit and result in a fire.

• Clean the machine using a slightly dampened cloth with a mild detergent mixed with water.
Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other flammable substances. Check detergent
for flammability prior to use. If flammable substances come into contact with a high-voltage
area inside the machine, it may result in a fire or electrical shock.

• There are some areas inside the machine which are subject to high-voltages. When removing
jammed paper or when inspecting the inside of the machine, do not allow necklaces,
bracelets, or other metal objects to touch the inside of the machine, as this may result in
burns or electrical shock.

• Do not burn or throw used toner cartridges into open flames, as this may cause the toner
remaining inside the cartridges to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire.

CAUTION

• The fixing unit and its surroundings inside the
machine may become hot during use. When
removing jammed paper or when inspecting the
inside of the machine, do not touch the fixing unit
and its surroundings, as doing so may result in
burns or electrical shock.

• When removing jammed paper or replacing the
toner cartridge, take care not to allow the toner to
come into contact with your hands or clothing, as
this will dirty your hands or clothing. If they become
dirty, wash them immediately with cold water.
Washing them with warm water will set the toner,
and make it impossible to remove the toner stains.

xix

• When removing paper which has become jammed inside the machine, remove the jammed
paper gently to prevent the toner on the paper from scattering and getting into your eyes or
mouth. If the toner gets into your eyes or mouth, wash them immediately with cold water and
immediately consult a physician.

• When loading paper or removing jammed originals or paper, take care not to cut your hands
on the edges of the originals or paper.

• When removing a used toner cartridge, remove the cartridge carefully to prevent the toner
from scattering and getting into your eyes or mouth. If the toner gets into your eyes or mouth,
wash them immediately with cold water and immediately consult a physician.
