Operator Safety:
This machine is considered a CDRH class I laser device, safe for office/EDP use. The machine contains a 15-milliwat, 760-800 nanometer wavelength, GaAIAs laser diode. Direct (or indirect reflected)
eye contact with the laser beam might cause serious eye damage. Safety precautions and interlock
mechanisms have been designed to prevent any possible laser beam exposure to the operator.
Laser Safety:
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) prohibits the repair of laser-based optical unit
in the field. The optical housing unit can only be repaired in a factory or at a location with the requisite
equipment. The laser subsystem is replaceable in the field by a qualified Customer Engineer. The laser
chassis is not repairable in the field. Customer engineers are therefore directed to return all chassis
and laser subsystems to the factory or service depot when replacement or the optical subsystem is required.
Warning:
Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual
might result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Two kinds of size notation are employed in this manual. With this machine refer to the inch version.
For good copy quality,Savin recommends that you use genuine Savin toner.
Savin shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use of parts other
than genuine Savin parts in your Savin office product.
Power Source:
120V, 60Hz, 12A or more
Please be sure to connect the power cord to a power source as above. For details about power source,
⇒ P.151 “Power Connection”.
