Ozone Release

CAUTION

Locate the Machine in a Well Ventilated Room

➜ A negligible amount of ozone is generated during normal operation of this

machine. An unpleasant odor may, however, be created in poorly ventilated

Disassemble and modification

WARNING

• 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

Introduction Chapter 1

blindness.

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

Power cord

WARNING

• Use only the power cord supplied in the package. If a power cord is not supplied, only use the power cord and plug that is specified in POWER CORD INSTRUCTION. Failure to use this cord could result in a fire or electrical shock.

• Use the power cord supplied in the package only for this machine and NEVER use it for any other product. Failure to observe this precaution could result in a fire or electrical shock.

• Do not scratch, abrade, place a heavy object on, heat, twist, bend, pull on, or damage the power cord.

1.4 Safety Information

Power source

WARNING

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

• Connect power plug directly into wall outlet having the same configuration as the plug. Use of an adapter leads to the product connecting to inadequate power supply (voltage, current capacity, grounding), and may result in fire or shock. If proper wall outlet is not available, the customer shall ask qualified electrician for the installation.

• Do not use a multiple outlet adapter nor an extension cord in principle. Use of an adapter or an extension cord could cause a fire or electrical shock. Contact your authorized service representative if an extension cord is required.

• Consult your authorized service representative before connecting other equipment on the same wall outlet. Overload could result in a fire.

Introduction Chapter 1

CAUTION

• The outlet must be near the equipment and easily accessible. Otherwise you can not pull out the power plug when an emergency occurs.

bizhub 180 1-11

Power plug

WARNING

• Do not unplug and plug in the power cord with a wet hand, as an electrical shock could result.

• Plug the power cord all the way into the power outlet.

Introduction Chapter 1

Failure to do this could result in a fire or electrical shock.

CAUTION

• Do not tug the power cord when unplugging. Pulling on the power cord could damage the cord, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.

• Remove the power plug from the outlet more than one time a year and clean the area between the plug terminals. Dust that accumulates between the plug terminals may cause a fire.

Grounding
