2.1 Safety instructions / Notes on use
Danger!
1. Use this franking system indoors and for franking post and franking labels only.
Any other use, modification or change to the franking system is not permissible
and may be dangerous. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused
by use contrary to the intended use or incorrect operation.
2. Check the franking system for external damage before setting it up. You may be
putting your life at risk by using a damaged machine.
3. A damaged connecting lead may only be replaced by a lead of the same type.
4. A current overload protector must always be fitted in buildings in which the
franking system is plugged into the mains network.
5.
Check the cable and plug before installing the system. Have any damage
repaired by a specialist electrician only.
6. Only connect the plug into a mains socket when the franking machine housing is
closed.
7. Always run the mains cable away from the rear of the franking machine and make
sure that no risk exists of it being damaged or someone tripping over it.
8. Never pull the plug out of the socket by the mains cable.
9. Never reach into the printing unit. Your fingers could be injured if the franking
machine is switched on. Be careful if you are wearing long hair, a tie, etc.
10. Do not reach into rotating parts. There is a risk of injury.
11. Keep children away from the franking system.
12. Have your franking system repaired by a service technician from your local Frama
sales and service organisation only. Never open the franking system yourself
under any circumstances. Repairs carried out incorrectly can represent a
significant hazard to the user.
2.1.1 Correct use
Danger!
1. Use accessories intended for this system only. The use of accessories that are
not approved, or not authorised, can be detrimental to the service life of the
franking system. At the same time, a danger to the operator can be created.
2. Always keep your fingers and other parts of the body, ties, necklaces, scarves,
open sleeves and similar loose things away from the feed entry area and the
rollers. There is a risk of injury on rotating parts.
3. Do not clean the system with flammable fluids. There is a risk of explosion.
4. Disconnect the system from the mains before cleaning it. Clean the system with
a damp cloth only. Do not spray any liquids on or into the franking system.
There is a risk of electric shock. Lethal hazard.
5. Do not place any liquids, glasses, franking ink, etc. on the franking system.

2.1.2 Installation notes
Information!
Your Frama Matrix franking system was manufactured for use in normal conditions.
Please remember: Today’s furniture is coated with a confusing variety of paints,
lacquers and synthetic materials. In view of this, it is quite possible that some of
these materials contain constituents which can attack or soften the plastic feet of
our equipment. The feet of our equipment, if affected by foreign substances, can
stain your furniture. Frama is unable to accept any liability in this respect for
obvious reasons. With this in mind, use a non-slip underlay.
Avoid exposing directly to sunlight.
2.2 Use as intended / Notes on print quality
The following notes are intended to support you in achieving a sharp, professional print with your
Frama Matrix franking system, so as not to jeopardise the delivery of your franked mail. As the user, you
are responsible for the legibility of your franking.
Information!
1. Your franking machine must be properly registered before you use it for the
first time. Follow the instructions given by your local Frama Sales and Service
organisation when you do this.
2. Each franking mark may be used only once. Repeated use is qualified as a
punishable offence and a violation of the general terms and conditions of
business of your Postal Operator.
3. Test franking marks or sample franking impressions are not valid impressions
and items bearing them may not, therefore, be mailed.
4. The use of fibrous and other unsuitable envelopes can result in the marks
blurring or smearing marks and thus to the franking marks being illegible. In
view of this, you are urgently advised not to use envelopes of this kind. Do not
use very absorbent or fibrous envelopes for this reason. This could invalidate
your franking.
5. The use of high gloss envelopes, which could offer insufficient contrast with
the franking mark, is not permitted.
6. Do not frank mail items thicker than 10 mm. You risk allowing the printing
head to touch the surface of the mail item and thus smearing the franked
mark. You should therefore always use Frama Matrix F32 / F42 / F62 / F82
franking labels for thick letters and packets.
7. Please make sure that no sharp objects, such as paper clips, are near the
franking zone. Such objects can damage the franking system.
8. Ink jet cassettes must be checked regularly to ensure high-quality printing.
After a certain time the printing head is sealed to prevent the individual
nozzles from drying. Do not, therefore, switch the franking system off
immediately, but wait until the print head is sealed, or use the Log off button.
9.
Please run a print head test and clean the print head using the Nozzle
Cleaning function.

2. Frama guarantees that no other data that are not relevant for the franking
system from the user's network will be used, transmitted or read.
3. The user must take measures to ensure the integrity and security of the network
at all times when operating the franking system on the company network.
4. The PC interface is not active.
