CAUTION
Precautions
The following precautions will help to ensure that this machine will continue to function correctly.
Try to avoid locations that have the following adverse conditions:
* Temperatures out of the specification * Direct sunlight * High humidity
* Shared power source * Excessive vibration * Dust/Gas
Do not subject the machine to sudden shocks.
Do not press the keys too hard. Keys will operate correctly if they are touched lightly.
Clean the cover and keyboard, etc. by wiping with a dry cloth or a cloth soaked with detergent and wrung out
thoroughly. Never use thinner or other volatile solvent for cleaning.
To ensure that the scale is operating correctly, place a known weight on the platter and check it for correct
weight measurement. This should be done every morning before starting normal operations.
When moving the machine, take hold of the case and lift the machine. Never hold the remote unit.
Do not place the machines on unstable or slanted surfaces, as they may drop or fall and cause injury.
USE ONLY TOSHIBA TEC SPECIFIED paper.
DO NOT STORE the paper or ribbons where they might be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures, high
humidity, dust, or gas.
Ensure the machine is operated on a level surface.
Any data stored in the memory of the machine could be lost during a machine fault.
Try to avoid using this equipment on the same power supply as high voltage equipment or equipment likely to
cause mains interference.
Unplug the machine whenever you are working inside it or cleaning it.
Keep your work environment static free.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the machines, as these items may become unbalanced and fall causing
injury.
Do not block the ventilation slits of the machines, as this will cause heat to build up inside the machines and
may cause fire.
Do not lean against the machine. It may fall on you and could cause injury.
Care must be taken not to injure yourself with the printer paper cutter.
Unplug the machine when it is not used for a long period of time.
Request Regarding Maintenance
Utilize our maintenance services.
After purchasing the machine, contact your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance once a
year to have the inside of the machine cleaned. Otherwise, dust will build up inside the machines and may
cause a fire or a malfunction. Cleaning is particularly effective before humid rainy seasons.
Our preventive maintenance service performs the periodic checks and other work required to maintain the
quality and performance of the machines, preventing accidents beforehand.
For details, please consult your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance.
Using insecticides and other chemicals
Do not expose the machines to insecticides or other volatile solvents. This will cause the cabinet or other parts
to deteriorate or cause the paint to peel.
If foreign obj ects (meta l fragments,
water, liquids) enter the machines,
first turn off the power switches and
disconnect the power cord plugs from
the outlet, and then contact your
authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance. Continued
use of the machine in that condition
may cause fire or electric shock.
Ensure that the equipment is
properly grounded. Extension cables
should also be grounded. Fire or
electric shock could occur on
improperly grounded equipment.
This indicates that there is the risk of personal Injury or damage to
objects if the machines are improperly handled contrary to this indication.
Disconnect
the plug.
No disassembling.
When unplugging the power cords,
be sure to hold and pull on the plug
portion. Pulling on the cord portion
may cut or expose the internal wires
and cause fire or electric shock.
Do not remove covers, repair or
modify the machine by yourself. You
may be injured by high voltage, very
hot parts or sharp edges inside the
machine.
