This Product Uses Lead (Pb) Free Solder Printed Circuit
Boards (PCBs).
Information regarding Lead-Free (PbF) solder:
Distinction of PbF PCB:
PCBs (manufactured) using lead free solder will have a mark following
the PCB part numbers in a label on the PCB.
Caution:
Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder; typically
the melting point is 50 - 70 F (30 - 40 C) higher. Please use a soldering iron
with temperature control and adjust it to 700 20 F (370 10 C). Exercise care
while using higher temperature soldering irons, do not heat the PCB for too long
to prevent solder splash or damage to the PCB.
Pb free solder will tend to splash when heated too high (about 1100 F/600 C).
ECO SOLDER M705 (available from Senju Metal Industry Co., Ltd.:
URL: http://www.senju-m.co.jp) is recommended when repairing PbF PCBs.

nstallation and Relocation Cautions
CAUTION
Do not place the machine near heaters or volatile, flammable, or combustible materials
such as curtains that may catch fire.
Do not place the machine in a hot, humid, dusty or poorly ventilated environment.
Prolonged exposure to these adverse conditions can cause fire or electric shocks.
Place the machine on a level and sturdy surface that can withstand.
If tilted, the machine may tip-over and cause injuries.
When relocating the machine, remove the toner and/or developer, and pack the machin
with proper packing materials for shipping.
When moving the machine, be sure to unplug the power cord from the outlet. If the
machine is moved with the power cord attached, it can cause damage to the cord which
could result in fire or electric shock.
ower and Ground Connection Cautions
WARNING
Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated
connector can draw a significant amount of current that can generate heat and
eventually cause fire over an extended period of time.
Always use the power cord provided with your machine. When an extension power cord
is required, always use a properly rated cord.
120 V/15 A or AC 220 - 240V/10 A
If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the machine or plug may emit smok
or become hot to the touch externally.
Do not attempt to rework, pull, bend, chafe or otherwise damage the power cord. Do no
place a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.
6
Never touch a power cord with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.
y.
O
O
If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, replace immediately with a specified cord onl
Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.
Stop operation immediately if your machine produces smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise, or smell,
or if water is spilt onto the machine. These conditions can cause fire. Immediately switch Off and
unplug the machine.
Do not disconnect or reconnect the machine while it is on. Disconnecting a live connector can deform
the plug and cause fire.
When disconnecting the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on a cord can
damage it and cause fire or electric shock.
When the machine is not used over an extended period of time, switch it Off and unplug it. If an unused
machine is left connected to a power source for a long period, degraded insulation can cause electric
shocks, current leakage or fire.
Be sure to switch Off and unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the machine for cleaning,
maintenance or fault clearance. Access to a live machines interior can cause electric shock.
Be sure to switch Off and unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the machine for
accessing interface cables, maintenance or fault clearance. Access to a live machines interior can
cause electric shock.
Once a month, unplug the machine and check the power cord for the following. If you notice any
unusual condition.
The power cord is plugged firmly into the receptacle.
The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
The cord is not cracked or frayed.
thers
The machine has a built-in circuit for protection against lightning-induced surge current. If lightning strikes in your
neighborhood, switch Off the machine. Disconnect the telephone line cable first, then unplug the power cord from
the machine and reconnect only when the lightning storm has stopped.
If you notice flickering or distorted images or noises on your audio-visual units, your machine may be causing
radio interference. Switch it Off and if the interference disappears, the machine is the cause of the radio interference. Perform the following procedure until the interference is corrected.
Move the machine and the TV and/or radio away from each other.
Reposition or reorient the machine and the TV and/or radio.
Unplug the machine, TV and/or radio, and replug them into outlets that operate on different circuits.
Reorient the TV and/or radio antennas and cables until the interference stops.
For an outdoor antenna, ask your local electrician for support.
Use a coaxial cable antenna.
perating Safeguards
WARNING
Do not touch areas where these caution labels are attached to the surface may be very hot, and cause
server burns.
Do not place any liquid container such as a vase or coffee cup on the machine. Spilt water can cause
fire or shock hazard.
Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the machine. If metal and flammable parts get
into the machine, they can short-circuit internal components, and cause fire or electric shocks.
If debris (metal or liquid) gets into the machine, switch Off and unplug the machine.
Operating a debris-contaminated machine can cause fire or electric shock.
Do not try to alter the machine configuration or modify any parts. An unauthorized modification can
cause smoke or fire.

CAUTION
C
e
Do not place a magnet near the safety switch of the machine. A magnet can activate the
machine accidentally resulting in injuries.
Do not use a highly flammable spray or solvent near the machine. It can cause fire.
When copying a thick document, do not use excessive force to press it against the
document glass. The glass may break and cause injuries.
Never touch a labeled area found on or near the heat roller. You can get burnt. If a shee
of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, do not try to remove it when it is hot, to avoid
injuries or burns. Switch Off the machine immediately, and wait until it cools down.
Do not use conductive paper, e.g. folding paper, carbonic paper and coated paper. Whe
a paper jam occurs, they can cause a short circuit and fire.
Do not place any heavy object on the machine. An off-balance machine can tip-over or
the heavy object can fall, causing damage and/or injuries.
Keep the room ventilated when using the machine for an extended period of time to
minimize the ozone density in the air.
When copying with the document cover open, do not look directly at the exposure lamp.
Direct eye exposure can cause eye fatigue or damage.
Pull out paper trays slowly to prevent injuries.
When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in the
machine. A piece of paper remaining in the machine can cause fire. If a sheet of paper i
wrapped around the heat roller, or when clearing a jammed paper that is difficult or
impossible to see, do not try to remove it by yourself. Doing so can cause injuries or
burns. Switch Off the machine immediately, and wait until it cools down.
onsumable Safeguards
WARNING
Never throw a toner bottle into an open flame. Toner remaining in the bottle can
cause an explosion and you can get burnt.
Never throw toner or a waste toner container or a toner bottle into an open flame. It
can cause an explosion and you can get burnt.
Keep button batteries out of the reach of children. If a button battery is swallowed
accidentally, get medical treatment immediately.
CAUTION
Never heat the drum cartridge, or scratch its surface. A heated or scratched drum can b
hazardous to your health.
Do not mix new and old batteries together. Otherwise, batteries can burst or leak,
causing fire or injuries.
Be sure to use the specified type of batteries only.
Ensure that batteries are installed with correct polarity. Incorrectly installed batteries can
burst or leak, resulting in spillage or injuries.
