Safety Notes
any hazard to the human body.
However, if the machine is used in a poorly ventilated room, many copies made, or plural
copiers are used at the same time, an odor may be detected, ensure adequate ventilation for a
comfortable working environment.
CAUTION: Vibration
Do not install on a floor which is subject to vibration or is not level.
CAUTION: Installation Space
Allow sufficient space for facilitating copy operation, changing parts, and periodic inspection.
Especially leave an adequate space behind the machine to let hot air out from the rear fan.
* At least 150 mm of space is needed on the right and back sides of the unit to ensure proper ventilation.
* The dimensions of the model shown include an Automatic Document Feeder and Paper Feed Unit.
3. Precautions for Routine Handling
CAUTION: Actions in Response to Troubles
• An Error Code is displayed, stop the operation to prevent any unexpected accident. Write down
the Error Code as stated in the display, then switch off the copier and disconnect from the power
socket. Contact your Service Centre and inform of the Error Code.
• Do not touch the high temperature or high voltage parts indicated with caution labels or
described in the manual.
• Do not touch the inside of the machine for any other purpose than removing jammed paper or
adding toner.
• If machine repair is necessary, be sure to contact your Service Centre. Never attempt to repair it
by yourself.
• If any abnormal sound, smell or smoke comes from the machine, immediately stop using it, turn
off the power switch, disconnect the power plug and contact your Service Centre.
• If the breaker trips or the fuse blows, turn off the power switch, reset the breaker or the fuse, and
turn on the machine. If the same situation occurs again, contact your Service Centre.
