Important Safety Instructions Please read these "Important Safety Instructions" thoroughly before operating the machine. As these instructions are intended to prevent injury to the user or other persons or destruction of property, always pay attention to these instructions. Also, since it may result in unexpected accidents or injuries, do not perform any operation unless otherwise specified in the manual.
Power Supply • Do not damage or modify the power cord. Also, do not place heavy objects on the power cord, or pull on or excessively bend it, as this could cause electrical damage and result in a fire or electrical shock. • Keep the power cord away from a heat source; failure to do this may cause the power cord coating to melt, resulting in a fire or electrical shock. • Do not connect or disconnect the power cord with wet hands, as this may result in electrical shock.
• Do not place heavy objects on the machine, as they may tip over or fall resulting in personal injury. • Close the feeder/platen cover gently to avoid catching your hands, as this may result in personal injury. • Do not press down hard on the feeder/platen cover when using the platen glass to make copies of thick books. Doing so may damage the platen glass and result in personal injury. • Do not touch the finisher while the machine is printing, as this may result in personal injury.
• The laser beam can be harmful to human bodies. Since radiation emitted inside the product is completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation. Read the following remarks and instructions for safety. • Never open covers other than those instructed in the manuals for this machine. • Do not remove the following caution label which is attached to the machine.
Maintenance and Inspections • When cleaning the machine, first turn OFF the main power switch, then disconnect the power cord. Failure to observe these steps may result in a fire or electrical shock. • Unplug the power plug periodically and clean with a dry cloth to remove dust and grime. Accumulated dust may absorb humidity in the air and may result in a fire if it comes into contact with electricity. • Clean the machine using a slightly dampened cloth with a mild detergent mixed with water.
Consumables • Do not burn or throw used toner cartridges into open flames, as this may cause the toner remaining inside the cartridges to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire. • Do not store toner cartridges or copy paper in places exposed to open flames, as this may cause the toner or paper to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire. • If you accidentally spill or scatter toner, carefully wipe up the loose toner with a damp, soft cloth and avoid inhaling any toner dust.
