Warning!
Never try to take the register apart or modify it in any way. High-voltage components inside the register
create the danger of fire and electric shock.
• Contact CASIO service representative for all repair and maintenance.
Power plug and AC outlet
Use only a proper AC electric outlet. Use of an outlet with a different voltage from the rating creates the
danger of malfunction, fire, and electric shock. Overloading an electric outlet creates the danger of
overheating and fire.
Make sure the power plug is inserted as far as it will go. Loose plugs create the danger of electric
shock, overheating, and fire.
• Do not use the register if the plug is damaged. Never connect to a power outlet that is loose.
Use a dry cloth to periodically wipe off any dust built up on the prongs of the plug. Humidity can cause
poor insulation and create the danger of electric shock and fire if dust stays on the prongs.
Do not allow the power cord or plug to become damaged, and never try to modify them in any way.
Continued use of a damaged power cord can cause deterioration of the insulation, exposure of internal
wiring, and short circuit, which creates the danger of electric shock and fire.
• Contact CASIO service representative whenever the power cord or plug requires repair or maintenance.
Caution!
Do not place the register on an unstable or uneven surface. Doing so can cause the register —
especially when the drawer is open — to fall, creating the danger of malfunction, fire, and electric
shock.
Do not place the register in the following areas.
• Areas where the register will be subject to large amounts of humidity or dust, or directly exposed to hot or
cold air.
• Areas exposed to direct sunlight, in a close motor vehicle, or any other area subject to very high
temperatures.
The above conditions can cause malfunction, which creates the danger of fire.
Do not overlay bend the power cord, do not allow it to be caught between desks or other furniture, and
never place heavy objects on top of the power cord. Doing so can cause short circuit or breaking of the
power cord, creating the danger of fire and electric shock.
Be sure to grasp the plug when unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet. Pulling on the cord can
damage it, break the wiring, or cause short, creating the danger of fire and electric shoc k.
Never touch the plug while your hands are wet. Doing so creates the danger of electric shock. Pulling
on the cord can damage it, break the wiring, or cause short, creating the danger of fire and electric
shock.
Never touch the printer head and the platen.
