Important Safety Instructions

Before using this product, read and follow these safety instructions:
Use only the power cord that comes with the
product. Use of another cord may cause fire or shock. Do not use the cord with any other equipment.
Make sure the power cord meets all relevant
local safety standards.
Use only the type of power source indicated on
the label.
Place the product near a wall outlet where the
power cord can be easily unplugged.
Do not let the power cord become damaged or
frayed.
If you use an extension cord with the product,
make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.
Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes
in heat or humidity, shocks or vibrations, or dust.
Leave enough room around the product for
sufficient ventilation. Do not block or cover openings in the case or insert objects through the slots.
Do not place the product near a radiator or
heating vent or in direct sunlight.
Place the product on a flat, stable surface that
extends beyond its base in all directions. It will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.
Make sure the back of the product is at least
10 cm away from the wall.
Do not open the scanner unit while copying,
printing, or scanning.
Do not spill liquid on the product.
Except as specifically explained in your
documentation, do not attempt to service the product yourself.
Unplug the product and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel under the following conditions: if the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the product; if the product has been dropped or the case damaged; if the product does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions.
When storing or transporting the product, do not
tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridges.
Be careful not to trap your fingers when closing
the scanner unit.

Ink cartridge safety instructions

Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children
and do not drink the ink.
Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges;
there may be ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If you still have discomfort or vision problems, see a doctor immediately.
Do not put your hand inside the product or
touch any cartridges during printing.
Install a new ink cartridge immediately after you
remove an expended cartridge. Leaving cartridges uninstalled can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the product from printing.
If you remove an ink cartridge for later use,
protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the product. Note that there is a valve in the ink supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent the ink from staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge, ink supply port, or surrounding area.
English
Do not use aerosol products that contain
flammable gases inside or around the product. Doing so may cause fire.
