1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the copier and peripherals,
make sure that the copier power cord is unplugged.
2. The wall outlet should be near the copier and easily accessible.
3. Note that the drum heater and the optional anti-condensation heaters are
supplied with electrical voltage even if the main switch is turned off.
4. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior covers
off or open while the main switch is turned on, keep hands away from
electrified or mechanically driven components.
5. The inside and the metal parts of the fusing unit become extremely hot
while the copier is operating. Be careful to avoid touching those
components with your bare hands.
HEALTH SAFETY CONDITIONS
1. Toner and developer are non-toxic, but if you get either of them in your
eyes by accident, it may cause temporary eye discomfort. Try to remove
with eye drops or flush with water as first aid. If unsuccessful, get medical
attention.
OBSERVANCE OF ELECTRICAL SAFETY STANDARDS
1. The copier and its peripherals must be installed and maintained by a
customer service representative who has completed the training course
on those models.
CAUTION
!
2. The RAM board has a lithium battery which can explode if handled
incorrectly. Replace only with the same type of RAM board. Do not
recharge or burn this battery. Used RAM boards must be handled
in accordance with local regulations.
FSMaFT5535/4527/4522
SAFETY AND ECOLOGICAL NOTES FOR DISPOSAL
1. Do not incinerate toner cartridges or used toner. Toner dust may ignite
suddenly when exposed to open flame.
2. Dispose of used toner, developer, and organic photoconductors in
accordance with local regulations. (These are non-toxic supplies.)
3. Dispose of replaced parts in accordance with local regulations.
4. When keeping used lithium batteries (from the main control boards) in
order to dispose of them later, do not store more than 100 batteries (from
the main control boards) per sealed box. Storing larger numbers or not
sealing them apart may lead to chemical reactions and heat build-up.
