Notice:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one more of the following measures:

•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.

RWARNING:

•Disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if the power cable or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged.

•To avoid hazardous electric shock or laser radiation exposure, do not remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this manual.

•Turn off the power and disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if any of the following occurs:

•You spill something into the machine.

•You suspect that your machine needs service or repair.

•The external housing of your machine has been damaged.

•Do not incinerate spilled toner or used toner. Toner dust might ignite when exposed to an open flame.

•Disposal can take place at our authorized dealer.

•Dispose of the used toner bottle in accordance with the local regulations.

•Connect the machine only to the power source described on the inside front cover of this manual. Connect the power cord directly into a wall outlet and do not use an extension cord.

•Do not damage, break or make any modifications to the power cord. Do not place heavy objects on it. Do not pull it hard nor bend it more than necessary. These actions could cause an electric shock or fire.

5

RCAUTION:

•Protect the machine from dampness or wet weather, such as rain and snow.

•Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the machine, you should take care that the power cord will not be damaged under the machine.

•When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the plug (not the cable).

•Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside the machine.

•Keep toner (used or unused) and toner bottle out of the reach of children.

•For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the machine or expended supply waste at household waste collection points. Disposal can take place at an authorized dealer.

•The inside of the machine could be very hot. Do not touch the parts with a label indicating the “hot surface”. Otherwise, an injury might occur.

•Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an electric shock might occur.

•Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over, an injury might occur.

•Before moving the machine, be sure to pull all four handles fully out. If not, an injury might occur. After moving the machine, return the four handles to their original positions.

•When the optional paper tray unit is installed, do not push the upper part of the main unit horizontally. An injury might occur if the paper tray unit becomes detached from the main unit.
