Safety Information

WARNING

Denotes a potential hazard that could result in serious injury or death.

• TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR ANY TYPE OF
MOISTURE.

• TO MINIMIZE THE POSSIBILITY OF SHOCK OR DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE, IT MUST BE PROPERLY
GROUNDED.

LASER SAFETY

Your Machine

Getting to Know

• THE POWER CORD ON THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE USED TO DISCONNECT THE MAIN POWER.
PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE SOCKET OUTLET IS INSTALLED NEAR THE EQUIPMENT, AND IS
EASILY ACCESSIBLE.

• MAKE SURE THAT THE MACHINE IS INSTALLED IN A SPACIOUS OR WELL VENTILATED ROOM SO
AS NOT TO INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF OZONE IN THE AIR. SINCE OZONE IS HEAVIER THAN AIR,
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT AIR AT FLOOR LEVEL BE VENTILATED.

• UNPLUG THIS UNIT FROM POWER OUTLETS IF IT EMITS SMOKE, AN ABNORMAL SMELL, OR
MAKES AN UNUSUAL NOISE.
THESE CONDITIONS CAN CAUSE FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK.
CONFIRM THAT SMOKE HAS STOPPED AND CONTACT AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.

Safety Information

WARNING

Denotes a potential hazard that could result in serious injury or death.

• THE POWER SOURCE VOLTAGE OF THIS UNIT IS LISTED ON THE NAMEPLATE. ONLY PLUG THE
UNIT INTO AN AC OUTLET WITH THE PROPER VOLTAGE. IF YOU USE A CORD WITH AN
UNSPECIFIED CURRENT RATING, IT MAY BE UNDERRATED, AND THE UNIT OR PLUG MAY EMIT
SMOKE OR BECOME HOT TO THE TOUCH.

• PLUG THE POWER CORD FIRMLY INTO AN AC OUTLET. OTHERWISE, IT CAN CAUSE FIRE OR
ELECTRIC SHOCK.

• TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO MAKE SURE THE POWER CORD AND PLUG DO NOT BECOME DAMAGED.
DO NOT PULL, BEND, REST OBJECTS ON, OR CHAFE THE POWER CORD AND PLUG. DAMAGE TO
THE POWER CORD OR PLUG CAN CAUSE FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
REPAIR THE POWER CORD OR PLUG. IF THE POWER CORD, OR PLUG IS DAMAGED OR FRAYED,
CONTACT AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE FOR A REPLACEMENT.

• 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 IF LEFT UNATTENDED OVER AN EXTENDED
PERIOD OF TIME.

• NEVER TOUCH THE PLUG WITH WET HANDS. DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK EXISTS.

CAUTION

Denotes hazards that could result in minor injury or damage to the machine.

• TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SHOCK OR FIRE, USE ONLY NO. 26 AWG OR LARGER TELEPHONE LINE
