error messages will continue to be displayed even after you have removed
the jammed sheet of paper from a particular location. Follow the
instructions on the display to locate the other jammed sheets of paper.

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 piece of paper is 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
contact your local authorized Panasonic service
representative.
Paper Jam at Trays 1-4
The following messages will be shown on the display if paper is jammed at
Trays 1 to 4.
The screen on the right shows the
error messages indicating that paper
is jammed at Tray 1. The error
messages shown will depend on
the tray that paper jam occurred.
