INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
To ensure safety and proper machine perfor mance, please note the
following before initial installation and whenever the machine is to be
relocated.
1. The copier should be installed near an accessible power outlet
Installation requirements
for easy connection.
2. Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that
meets the specified voltage and current requirements.
Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded.
3. Do not install the machine where it is:
●
damp or humid,
●
exposed to direct sunlight,
●
extremely dusty,
●
poorly ventilated,
●
subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes (e.g., near
an air conditioner or heater).
4. Ensure that the area chosen for the machine location is level.
5. Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for
servicing and proper ventilation.
23-5/8"

A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier during operation.
The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.
NOTE:
The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm
(0.2 mg/m
3
) calculated as an 8 hr. time-weighted average concentration.
Howev er, since the small amount that is emitted ma y ha ve an objectionable
odor, it is advisable to place the copier in a ventilated area.

When using the document glass, the area to be erased is simply
a specified portion of the copy paper. By repositioning the
original, the portion of it which falls within the area to be erased
can be shifted.
When using an optional document feeder (ADF or RADF), the
original is always fed to the same position on the document
glass, so the area to be erased is fixed.
