Where to set up your fax machine

Follow these guidelines when setting up your fax machine:

Away from direct sun­light

To avoid overheating, set up
your fax machine away from
direct sunlight or a heater.

Level, and vibration-free

To avoid damage to the machine
or injuries, set the fax machine
up in a level, vibration-free
location.

Avoid extreme high / low
temperature

Use your fax machine within
the temperature range of 10º C
to 32º C (50º F to 89.6º F).

Away from a television
or radio

Many appliances and office
equipment, including televi­sions, radios, copy machines, air
conditioners and computers, can
generate electronic noise that
can interfere with the operation
of your fax machine.

Clean

Dust buildup can damage your
fax. Periodically clean your fax
machine as described in the
operating instructions. Do not
use a dust cover, which can
cause damaging overheating.

Near a phone jack

Your fax machine uses a stan­dard (modular) telephone jack.

Space around the fax machine

To ensure proper ventilation and easy operation, set up the
machine in an area that meets the minimum requirements for
clearance as illustrated below.

Power requirements

Plug in the power cord

Plug the power cord carefully
and completely into a wall out­let. Do not leave any portion of
the electrical cord’s metal plugs
exposed. Doing so could cause
a fire and poses a risk of electri­cal shock.

Do not share an exten­sion cord

connector with other plugs
It can cause electrical shock.

Do not share an outlet
with a large appliance

High-consumption appliances
such as a refrigerator

or air conditioner can cause
“draw-downs” which could
damage your fax machine.

Use standard power sup­ply

Use a standard electrical outlet
to power your fax machine.
Using any other electrical outlet
will cause damage to your fax.

50 - 89.6 F

Before using your Muratec fax machine

For domestic use only

Never use your fax machine
outside the country in which
you purchased it. Doing so may
violate telecommunication and
safety regulations of that coun­try, and variations in electrical
and telephone standards can
cause poor performance and
damage to your fax.

General Precautions

Never disassemble your
fax machine!

Disassembling your fax
machine can cause serious
injury to you and damage to
your fax. If service is required,
call your authorized Muratec
dealer.

Keep away from liquids

Keep liquids and metal pins or
other objects away from your
fax machine. If something falls
into the fax machine, remove
the plug from the outlet, and
call your authorized Muratec
dealer.

Never handle your fax
machine or power cord
with wet hands

Never touch your fax machine
or power cord if your hands are
wet.

During electrical storms,
disconnect the plug from
the outlet

Electrical storms can cause elec­trical shock or

damage to the fax machine.

Do not put furniture or
equipment on the power
cord

Do not put anything on or over
the electrical power cord, and
do not route the power cord
under rugs or carpets. Doing so
can damage the power cord or
fax, and can cause fire or elec­trical shock.

Avoid temperature fluc­tuations

Sudden changes in temperature
can cause damaging condensa­tion to form inside your fax
machine.

Allow clearance around
the outlet

Don’t stack boxes or furniture
around the outlet.

Use caution when carry­ing the fax

Lift and carry the fax machine
as described in your operating
instructions. Some fax machines
require two people to safely and
properly carry.

Use supplies manufac­tured specifically for
Muratec fax machines

Using toner cartridges and other
supplies that are not manufac­tured specifically for Muratec
machines may affect the opera­tion of your unit.

ii

Storing and handling toner cartridge

To avoid damage to your fax machine and to assure the best per­formance possible, follow these guidelines when storing and
handling toner cartridge:

Do not stand the cartridge on its end and do not
store it upside down.

Do not open the protective bag of the cartridge
until you are ready to install the cartridge.

Do not store cartridges in areas of:

Direct sunlight
Dusty conditions
Near floppy disks or other computer media, computer

screens, or any other materials sensitive to magnetic fields.

DO NOT BURN TONER CARTRIDGES!

The toner powder is extremely flammable. Exposure to flame
can cause toner cartridges to burn or explode, causing serious
injury.

Be careful not to get the toner powder in your eyes.

If the toner powder gets in your eyes, wash your eyes well and
see a doctor.

Keep cartridges away from water or oil.

Do not expose cartridges to direct sunlight.

Do not expose the cartridges to static or other electrical
shock.

For your printout quality

Your fax machine has a page counter inside to alarm you replac­ing the toner cartridge. When it comes to a certain amount, the
display shows “LOW TONER !”.

However the toner spent varies depending on the using condi­tions. In some conditions, the toner may run out before your
machine alarms you for replacing it.

So in order to have always a good printout quality, check the
printout quality by yourself. When the received faxes or copies
are too light, the toner may be almost gone.

There is a case that you may extend the toner service life by
shaking the toner cartridge several times. In such case, make
also sure that you have a new toner cartridge on hand for the
toner finally runs out.
