Introduction

WARNING

• Do not modify this product: Fire, electrical shock, or breakdown could result. If the product employs a laser, the laser beam source could cause blindness.

• Do not attempt to remove the covers and panels which have been fixed to the product. Some products have a high-voltage part or a laser beam source inside that could cause an electrical shock or blindness.

• Use only the power cord supplied in the package. Failure to use this cord could result in fire or electrical shock.

• Use only the specified power source voltage. Failure to do so could result in fire or electrical shock.

• Do not use a multiple outlet adapter to connect any other appliances or machines. Use of a power outlet for more than the marked current value could result in fire or electrical shock.

Do not unplug and plug in the power cord with a wet hand: An electrical shock could result.

Plug the power cord all the way into the power outlet. Failure to do so could result in fire or electrical shock.

• Do not scratch, abrade, place a heavy object on, heat, twist, bend, pull on, or damage the power cord. Use of a damaged power cord (exposed core wire, broken wire, etc.) could result in fire or breakdown. Should any of these conditions be found, immediately turn OFF the power switch, unplug the power cord from the power outlet, and then call your authorized service repr ese nta tive.

• In principle, do not use an extension cord. Use of an extension cord could cause fire or electrical shock. Contact your authorized service representative if an extension cord is required.

Do not place a flower vase or other container that contains water, or metal clips or other small metallic objects on this product. Spilled water or metallic objects dropped inside the product could result in fire, electrical shock, or break-down. Should a piece of metal, water, or any other similar foreign matter get inside the product, immediately turn OFF the power switch, unplug the power cord from the power outlet, and then call your authorized service representative.

• If this product becomes inordinately hot or emits smoke, or emits an unusual odor or noise, immediately turn OFF the power switch, unplug the power cord from the power outlet, and then call your authorized service representative. If you keep on using it as is, fire or electrical shock could result.

• If this product has been dropped or its cover damaged, immediately turn OFF the power switch, unplug the power cord from the power outlet, and then call your authorized service representative. If you keep on using it as is, fire or electrical shock could result.

Do not throw the toner cartridge or toner into an open flame. The hot toner may scatter and cause burns or other damage.

Precautions for Placing the Original on the Original Glass

Care should be used when positioning the following types of originals. An original of a nonstandard size:

The copier is unable to detect the orig inal size auto matically, meaning

that neither Auto Paper nor Auto Size c an be used. Theref ore, use the [Paper] key to select the paper size, or the [Zoom] key to select the zoom ratio. (p.5-11)

A highly transparent original (OHP transpa rencies, translucent paper, etc.):

Place a blank sheet of p aper of the same siz e over the original. (p.4-8)

A book or other three-dimensional object:

Let the copier sc an the c ontents of th e origi nal with th e Origina l Cover

or the Automatic Docum ent Feeder raised. Do not attempt to push the Original Glass with excessive force, as a malfunction could result. The maximum load resistance of the Original Glass is 3 kg (6-1/2 lb).

Position the book face down on the Original Glass, with the top of the book toward the rear of the copier and the center of the open book aligned with the book mark ( ) on the scale.

➜

Gently lower the Automatic Document Feeder or Original Cover.

➜

Are there any cautions when you place a book di rectly on the original Glass?

Do not place any object that weighs more than 3 kg ( 6-1/2 lb) on the Original Glass. In addition, do not press down hard on the book, as a damaged Original Glass could result.

Is a thick book or object being copied?

Let the copier scan the original without lowering the Automatic Document Feeder or Original Cover. Do not look directly at the Original Glass su rface durin g a scann ing sequ ence sin ce a strong beam of light is emitted. This light beam is not, however, a laser beam and is not as dangerous.
