Notice for users in the UK

MAINS PLUG WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

The mains lead of this equipment is already fitted with a mains plug which is either a non-rewireable
(moulded) or a rewireable type. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved fuse
to BS1362 marked
used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse on the moulded plug. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied
either cut-off the moulded plug (if this type is fitted) or remove by undoing the screws if a rewireable
plug is fitted and fit an appropriate type observing the wiring code below.

DANGER: The fuse should be removed from the cut-off plug and the plug destroyed immediately
and disposed of in a safe manner. Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted
elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

GREEN-AND-YELLOW: Earth
BLUE: Neutral
BROWN: Live

As the colours of the wires in this mains lead may not correspond with coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured GREEN-AND-YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter E, or by the safety earth symbol

or

and of the same rating as the one removed from the plug must be

, or coloured green or

Power notes

WARNING

Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that meets the specied

voltage and current requirements. Also make certain the outlet is properly
grounded. Do not use an extension cord or adapter to connect other devices to
the power outlet used by the machine.

Using an improper power supply may cause re or electrical shock.

* For the power supply requirements, see the name plate in the lower left corner of the left side of the

machine.

Do not damage or modify the power cord.

Placing heavy objects on the power cord, pulling it, or forcibly bending it
will damage the cord, resulting in fire or electrical shock.

Do not insert or remove the power plug with wet hands.

This may cause electrical shock.

PROHIBITED
ACTIONS

DO NOT
DISASSEMBLE

MANDATORY
ACTIONS

CAUTION

When removing the power plug from the outlet, do not pull on the cord.

Pulling on the cord may cause damage such as wire exposure and breakage, and may result in fire or
electrical shock.

If you will not use the machine for a long time, be sure to remove the power plug
from the outlet for safety.

When moving the machine, switch off the main power and remove the power plug
from the outlet before moving.

The cord may be damaged, creating a risk of fire or electrical shock.

Installation notes

CAUTION

Do not install the machine on an unstable or slanted surface. Install the machine
on a surface that can withstand the weight of the machine.

Risk of injury due to the machine falling or toppling.
If peripheral devices are to be installed, do not install on an uneven floor, slanted surface, or otherwise
unstable surface. Danger of slippage, falling, and toppling. Install the product on a flat, stable surface
that can withstand the weight of the product.

Do not install in a location with moisture or dust.

Risk of fire and electrical shock.
If dust enters the machine, dirty output and machine failure may result.

Do not install the machine in a location with poor air
circulation.

A small amount of ozone is created inside the machine during
printing. The amount of ozone created is not sufficient to be
harmful; however, an unpleasant odor may be noticed during large
copy runs, and thus the machine should be installed in a room with
a ventilation fan or windows that provide sufficient air circulation.
(The odor may occasionally cause headaches.)
* Install the machine so that people are not directly exposed to

exhaust from the machine. If installed near a window, ensure that
the machine is not exposed to direct sunlight.

Near a wall

Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for
servicing and proper ventilation. (The machine should be no closer
than the distances indicated below from walls. The indicated
distances are for the case when a saddle finisher and large
capacity paper tray are not installed.)

30 cm

30 cm

45 cm

Locations that are excessively hot, cold,

humid, or dry (near heaters, humidiers, air

conditioners, etc.)

The paper will become damp and condensation may form
inside the machine, causing misfeeds and dirty output.

SPECIFICATIONS (page 10)
If the location has an ultrasonic humidifier, use pure water for
humidifiers in the humidifier. If tap water is used, minerals and
other impurities will be emitted, causing impurities to collect
on the inside of the machine and create dirty output.

When the machine is installed, the adjusters (4) must be

lowered to the oor to secure the machine (prevent it from

moving).

Rotate the adjusters in the locking direction until they are in firm contact with the floor.

If you nd it necessary to reposition the machine due to rearrangement
of your ofce layout or other reason, retract the adjusters from the oor,

turn off the power, and then move the machine.

(After moving the machine, lower the adjusters again to secure the machine.)

Locations exposed to direct sunlight

Plastic parts may become deformed and dirty output may result.

Locations with ammonia gas

Installing the machine next to a diazo copy machine may cause dirty output.

Lock

Locations subject to vibration.

Vibration may cause failure.

CAUTION

The machine includes a built-in hard drive. Do not subject the machine to shock or
vibration. In particular, never move the machine while the power is on.

• The machine should be installed near an accessible power outlet for easy connection.

• Connect the machine to a power outlet which is not used for other electric appliances. If a lighting
xture is connected to the same outlet, the light may icker.

Release

About consumables

CAUTION

Do not throw a toner cartridge into a re.

Toner may fly and cause burns.

Store a toner cartridge out of the reach of children.

Handling precautions

WARNING CAUTION

Do not place a container of water or other liquid, or a
metal object that might fall inside, on the machine.

If the liquid spills or the object falls into the machine, fire or electrical
shock may result.

Do not remove the machine casing.

High-voltage parts inside the machine may cause electrical shock.

Do not make any modications to this machine.

Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the machine.

Do not use a ammable spray to clean the machine.

If gas from the spray comes in contact with hot electrical components or the fusing unit inside
the machine, fire or electrical shock may result.

If you notice smoke, a strange odor, or other abnormality,
do not use the machine.

If used in this condition, fire or electrical shock may result.
Immediately switch off the main power and remove the power plug from
the power outlet.
Contact your dealer or nearest authorised service representative.

If a thunder storm begins, switch off the main power and remove the power plug

from the outlet to prevent electrical shock and re due to lightning.

Do not look directly at the light source.

Doing so may damage your eyes.

Do not block the ventilation ports on the machine. Do not install the machine in a
location that will block the ventilation ports.

Blocking the ventilation ports will cause heat to build up in the machine, creating a risk of fire.

The fusing unit and paper exit area are hot. When
removing a misfeed, do not touch the fusing unit and
paper exit area. Take care not to burn yourself.

When loading paper, removing a
misfeed, performing maintenance,
closing the front and side covers, and
inserting and removing trays, take care

that your ngers are not pinched.

The machine includes the document filing function, which stores document image data on the
machine’s hard drive. Stored documents can be called up and printed or transmitted as needed.
If a hard drive failure occurs, it will no longer be possible to call up the stored document data.
To prevent the loss of important documents in the unlikely event of a hard drive failure, keep the
originals of important documents or store the original data elsewhere.
With the exception of instances provided for by law, Sharp Corporation bears no responsibility for
any damages or loss due to the loss of stored document data.

If a piece of metal or water enters the machine, switch off the main power and
remove the power plug from the power outlet.

Contact your dealer or nearest authorised service representative. Using the machine in this condition
may result in electrical shock or fire.
