7 WARNING

Ignoring these warnings could cause serious injury or even death.

% Do not ignore these safety advices.

Warning Symbol

• 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 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

7 WARNING

Ignoring these warnings could cause serious injury or even death.

% Do not ignore these safety advices.

Warning Symbol

• 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. Use of a damaged power cord (exposed core wire, broken wire, etc.)
could result in a fire or breakdown.
Should any of these conditions be found, immediately turn OFF the power switch, un­plug the power cord from the power outlet, and then call your authorized service rep­resentative.

2.5 Operation precautions

To ensure the optimum performance of this machine, observe the precautions described below.

Power source

The power source requirements are as follows.

- Voltage fluctuation: Maximum ± 10% (at 220 to 240 V AC)

- Frequency fluctuation: Maximum ± 3 Hz (at 50 Hz/60 Hz)

– Use a power source with as little voltage or frequency fluctuations as possible.

Operating environment

The environmental requirements for correct operation of the machine are as follows.

- Temperature: 10°C (50°F) to 30°C (86°F) with fluctuations of no more than 10°C (18°F) within an hour

- Humidity: 15% to 85% with fluctuations of no more than 10% within an hour

Storage of copies

To store copies, follow the recommendation listed below.

- Copies that are to be kept for a long time should be kept where they are not exposed to light in order

to prevent them from fading.

- Adhesive that contains solvent (e.g., spray glue) may dissolve the toner on copies.

- Color copies have a thicker layer of toner than normal black-and-white copies. Therefore, when a color

copy is folded, the toner at the fold may peel off.

3.6 Feeding the original

The original can be fed in either of the following two ways. Be sure to position the original correctly according
to the type of original being copied.

Original Feed Method Features

Using the ADF By using the ADF, a multi-page original can be fed automatically, one page at a

time. This feed method can also be used to automatically scan double-sided orig­inals.

Using the original glass Place the original directly on the original glass so that it can be scanned. This

method is best with books and other originals that cannot be fed through the ADF.

3.6.1 Loading the original into the ADF

0 The ADF is an option.
0 Do not load originals that are bound together, for example, with paper clips or staples.
0 For details on the types of originals that can be loaded into the ADF, refer to "Originals" on page 3-98.
0 Do not load more than 100 sheets or so many sheets that the top of the stack is higher than the t mark,

otherwise an original misfeed or damage to the original or machine may occur. However, a original that
exceeds 100 pages can be scanned in separate batches. For details, refer to "Scanning the original in
separate batches ("Separate Scan" setting)" on page 3-30.

0 If the original is not loaded correctly, it may not be fed in straight or an original misfeed or damage to

the original may occur.

0 If the original is loaded in any orientation other than with the top of the original toward the back of the

machine, be sure to select the original orientation.

1 Slide the lateral guides to fit the size of the original.

2 Place the original in the original feed tray in the order to be

scanned with the side to be scanned faces up.

3.6.2 Placing the original on the original glass

0 For details on the types of originals that can be placed on the original glass, refer to "Originals" on

page 3-98.

0 When placing the original on the original glass, be sure to lift open the ADF or the original cover at least

20°.
If the original is placed on the original glass without the ADF or the original cover being lifted at least
20°, the correct original size may not be detected.

0 Do not place objects weighing more than 2 kg on the original glass. In addition, do not press down

extremely hard on a book spread on the original glass, otherwise the original glass may be damaged.

0 For thick books or large objects, make the copy without closing the ADF or the original cover. When an

original is being scanned with the ADF or the original cover open, do not look directly at the light that
may shine through the original glass. Although the light that shines through the original glass is bright,
it is not a laser beam and, therefore, is not as dangerous.
