Power Requirements and Ground Connection

Never use multi-plug adaptors to plug multiple power plugs in the same outlet. Be sure to operate the machine on a single-use

Two power specifications are listed below. The specifications that apply to your machine depend on your machine configuration. Connect the power plug only to a properly rated power outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or electric shocks. If in doubt, contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative.

Rated voltage: 120 VAC Rated frequency: 60 Hz Rated voltage: 220 - 240 VAC

Rated frequency: 50/60 Hz

receptacle. Multiple connectors can cause the outlet to overheat and cause fire.

Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated connector can draw a non-negligible amount of current that can generate heat and eventually cause a 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. In USA, it is 125 V/15 A. In other countries, contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative. If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the machine or plug may emit smoke or become hot to the touch externally .

Do not attempt to rework, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the Power Cord. Do not place a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.

Never touch a Power Cord with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.

Stop operation immediately if your machine produces smoke, smell, excessive heat, or unusual noise, or if water is spilt onto the machine. These conditions can cause fire. Immediately switch off and unplug the machine, and contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative.

If the Power Cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, ask your local authorized Panasonic service representative for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.

To prevent fire or electric shocks, your machine

must be grounded. If in doubt, contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative. Never connect the ground wire to any of the following:

Gas pipe, which can be ignited and explode Telephone line ground wire or lightning rod, which can draw an excessive electric current if hit by lightning Water faucet or pipe whose electrical conductivity is broken by a non-metal part

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 machine's interior can cause electric shocks.

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 leakages, or fire.

Once a month, unplug the machine and check the Power Cord for the following:

The Power Cord is plugged firmly into a 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. If you notice any unusual conditions, contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative.

This machine has a ground fault interrupter. Once a month, check the protection circuit for correct operation using the following procedure. If the circuit does not operate, an electric shock can occur on a poorly grounded component. If you notice any unusual conditions, contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative.

Press the power switch to the " " position.

Do not unplug the machine while it is on.

Unplugging a live connector can deform the plug and cause a fire.

When unplugging the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on a cord can damage it and cause fire or electric shocks.

Press the test button below the breaker switch with the tip of a ball pen. When the breaker switch is turned from " " to " ", the circuit is OK.

Turn the breaker switch, then the power switch to the " " position.

Other Precautions

When installed at a certain location, the machine may cause interference with radio and television reception. 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 radio interference. Perform the following procedures until the interference is corrected:

Move the machine, and the TV and radio away from each other. Reposition or re-orientate the machine and/or the TV and radio.

Operating Safeguards

Do not place any liquid container such as a vase or coffee cup on the machine. Spilt water can cause fire or electric shocks.

Unplug the machine, TV, and radio, and replug

them into outlets that operate on different

circuits.

Re-orientate the TV and/or radio antennas and

cables until the interference stops. For an

outdoor antenna, you should ask your local

electrician for support.

Use coaxial cable antennas. 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 Power Cord from the machine, and reconnect them only when lightning has stopped.

Since radiation emitted inside the machine is completely confined within the protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation. Do not perform any operation apart from the instructions given in the manual. There may be a danger of laser beam leakage.

Do not place any metal part such as staples or clips on the machine. If metal and flammable parts entered the machine, they can short internal components, and cause fire or electric shocks.

If debris (metal or liquid) entered the machine, switch Off and unplug the machine. Contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative. Operating a debris-contaminated machine can cause fire or electric shocks.

Never open or remove machine covers that are secured with screws unless specifically instructed in this manual. A high voltage component can cause electric shocks.

Do not try to alter the machine configuration, or modify any parts. An unauthorized modification can cause smoke or fire.

This equipment is certified as a Class 1 laser product under IEC60825 and FDA (Food and Drug Administration:USA). This means that the machine does not emit hazardous laser radiation.

Do not place any heavy object on the machine. An off-balance machine can fall over or the heavy object can fall, causing injuries.

If you make copies with the document cover open, avoid looking directly at the copy lamp. Direct eye exposure can cause eye fatigue or damage.

Do not use a highly flammable spray 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.

Do not touch areas on or near the Fuser Unit that are affixed with the label, “Hot Surface”. You can get burnt as a result. Do not forcefully remove paper that are in the Fuser Unit or wrapped around the Heat Roller. You can get burnt as a result. Switch Off the machine, and contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative.

xiii

Do not place a heavy object or lean your elbow

on the touch-sensitive panel or display. The panel or display can break and the broken glass can cause injuries.

Do not use papers that conduct electricity (for example, origami paper, carbon paper and coated paper). If the paper is jammed in the machine, it can result in a short circuit or fire.

Do not staple document with punched holes (e.g. perforated paper available in the market) as the resultant detached staples can injure your fingers.

When sliding out a Paper Tray, pull it out slowly. If pulled out with too much force, the tray can hit

and injure your knees.

When pushing back the Tray, be careful so that

your fingers are not hurt by the pincers. When opening the Transfer Unit, be careful so

that your fingers are not hurt by the pincers. Do not reach your hand to the back of the

Transfer Unit. You can injure your hand this way, or your fingers may be hurt by the pincers.

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 a fire.

If a sheet of paper cannot be removed or is wrapped around the Heat Roller, do not try to remove it by yourself. Doing so can cause injuries. Switch Off the machine immediately, and contact your local authorized Panasonic service representative.

It is recommended to ventilate the room to keep the environment comfortable during continuous copying runs in a small room.

When removing jammed staples, take care not to injure your fingers.

Other Precautions

When clearing a paper jam or other fault, follow the appropriate procedures given in this manual.

As the cooling fan is always switched On to prevent the machine from overheating, it is not an error. Do not block the ventilation outlets of the machine.
