Important safety information
Always be careful when using the machine. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
and other injuries, keep these safety considerations in mind when installing, using,
and maintaining your machine:
•
Stability. Place the machine on a secure, stable surface. The machine can be seriously
damaged if it falls.
•
Power supply. Provide correct power to the machine, as listed on the back of the
machine. If you are not sure of the type of power that is supplied to your home or
office, call your electric company.
•
Grounding. If the plug has three prongs, it must be plugged into a grounded (three
hole) outlet. Grounded plugs and outlets are designed for your safety – do not try to
make a three-prong plug fit into a two-prong outlet by modifying the plug or outlet in
any way. If you cannot insert the plug into your wall outlet easily, the outlet should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
•
Overload. Do not plug too many electrical devices into a wall outlet or an extension
cord. An overloaded outlet is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
•
Cleaning. Before cleaning the machine, unplug it from both the power outlet and the
telephone jack. Clean exposed parts with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water.
Do not use aerosol cleaners.
•
Thunderstorms. Unplug electrical appliances during thunderstorms. Avoid using any
telephone (except a cordless model) during a thunderstorm, since there is a small
chance you could get an electrical shock from lightning.
•
Gas leaks. Never use any telephone close to a gas leak. If you think gas is leaking, call
the gas company immediately, but use a telephone that is far away from the leakage
area. A small electrical spark in the telephone could cause a fire or explosion.
•
Ozone. This product produces ozone during normal operation. The ozone produced is
dependent on copy volume and is heavier than air. If your machine is installed as specified in the installation procedures, ozone output levels meet safe limits.
v
Precautions
When using your machine, these precautions should always be followed.
1. Never push objects of any kind into your machine through the case or cabinet
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk fire or shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.
2. Slots and openings in the back and sides of your machine’s cabinet are provided for
ventilation. To ensure a reliable operation of the machine and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. Your machine should never be
placed on, near, or over a radiator, heater, air conditioner, or ventilation duct.
3. Do not use your machine near water, in wet locations, or outdoors.
4. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, line cord, or PC interface cable.
Do not locate your fax machine where the cords will be damaged by persons walking
on them.
5. Do not allow pets to chew on the power cord, line cord, or PC interface cable.
6. Do not put your hands into the fuser area. The fuser is extremely hot and severe
burns can result from the contact. Do not put your hands into the scanner motor,
scanner bracket and scanner motor cover, either.
7. Always use materials specially designed for your machine. Use of other materials may
result in poor performance and could create a hazardous situation.
8. Use supplies or cleaning materials only as directed. Keep all supplies and materials out
of the way of children.
9. The power supply turns this machine on and off. Make sure that your machine is
installed near an outlet and is easily accessible.
10. Your machine is equipped with an energy saving device to conserve power when the
machine is not in use. The machine may be left on continuously.
11. Never remove covers or guards that require a tool for removal. There are no
operator serviceable areas inside your machine. Refer servicing to authourized service
personnel.
12. Never defeat interlock switches. This machine is designed to restrict operator access to
unsafe areas. Covers, guards and interlock switches are provided to ensure that the
machine will not operate with covers opened.
13. Use of an extension cord with this machine is not recommended or authorized.
14. Avoid direct viewing of the document lights. The lamps are bright and, while not
harmful, they may cause an annoying afterimage. Always keep the document cover
closed during operation and storage.
15. Avoid exposing the toner cartridge to light for extended periods of time.
16. Do not touch the green photoreceptor. Scratches or smudges that appear on the
photoreceptor will result in poor copy quality and may shorten the service life.
17. This equipment is not designed for making telephone calls when the power fails.
Alternative equipment should be made available for access to emergency services.
