Safety During Operation
In this manual, the following important symbols are used:
WARNING:
CAUTION:
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if instructions
are not followed, could result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if instructions are not
followed, may result in minor or moderate injury or damage to property.
R WARNING:
• Disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if the
power cable or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged.
• To avoid hazardous electric shock or laser radiation exposure, do not
remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this manual.
• Turn off the power and disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug,
not the cable) if any of the following occurs:
• You spill something into the machine.
• You suspect that your machine needs service or repair.
• The external housing of your machine has been damaged.
• Do not incinerate spilled toner or used toner. Toner dust might ignite
when exposed to an open flame.
• Disposal can take place at our authorized dealer.
• Dispose of the used toner bottle in accordance with the local regula-
tions.
• Connect the machine only to the power source described on the inside
front cover of this manual. Connect the power cord directly into a wall
outlet and do not use an extension cord.
• Do not damage, break or make any modifications to the power cord.
Do not place heavy objects on it. Do not pull it hard nor bend it more
than necessary. These actions could cause an electric shock or fire.
• Keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and aerosols.
A fire or an electric shock might occur.
• Do not incinerate used toner or toner containers. Toner dust might ignite when exposed to an open flame.
4
R CAUTION:
• Protect the machine from dampness or wet weather, such as rain and snow.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine.
While moving the machine, you should take care that the power cord will not
be damaged under the machine.
• When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the
plug (not the cable).
• Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside
the machine.
• Keep toner (used or unused) and toner bottle out of the reach of children.
• For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the machine or expended
supply waste at household waste collection points. Disposal can take place
at an authorized dealer.
• The inside of the machine could be very hot. Do not touch the parts with a
label indicating the “hot surface”. Otherwise, an injury might occur.
• Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an electric shock might occur.
• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over,
an injury might occur.
• When the optional paper tray unit is installed, do not push the upper part of
the main unit horizontally. An injury might occur if the paper tray unit becomes detached from the main unit.
• If you use the machine in a confined space, make sure there is a continuous
air turnover.
• Keep toner (used or unused) and toner containers out of reach of children.
• If toner or used toner is inhaled, gargle with plenty of water and move into a
fresh air environment. Consult a doctor if necessary.
• If toner or used toner gets into your eyes, flush immediately with large
amounts of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.
• If toner or used toner is swallowed, dilute by drinking a large amount of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.
• Avoid getting toner on your clothes or skin when removing a paper jam or
replacing toner. If your skin comes into contact with toner, wash the affected
area thoroughly with soap and water.
• If toner gets on your clothing, wash with cold water. Hot water will set the
toner into the fabric and may make removing the stain impossible.
