• Place the fax on a level surface.
• Do not remove the BJ cartridge from the unit unless it needs
to be replaced, or when transporting the fax. Removing the
cartridge and leaving the print head unprotected will cause it
to dry out and become unusable.
• Do not place the fax on the edge of a desk so as to prevent received documents falling onto the floor.
• Certain table surfaces may prevent received documents from sliding out smoothly, resulting in paper
jams. Do not place the fax on these types of tables.
• Do not install the fax near devices which contain magnets or generate magnetic fields.
• Do not subject the fax to strong physical shock or vibration.
• Keep the fax clean. Dust accumulation can prevent the fax from operating properly.
• Before you transport your fax, make sure to remove the BJ cartridge and recover the print head with
the orange tape. After moving the fax, remove the orange tape and reload the BJ cartridge.

Here are some other general precautions when you are using or working around it.
CAUTION
• Avoid installing your fax in places exposed to direct sunlight, dust, vibration, high temperature or
humidity, or on unstable surfaces.
• To assure proper electrical contact, make sure the fax is firmly plugged in.
• Never pull on the cord to unplug the fax. Pull on the plug itself.
WARNING
• Do not overload the electrical outlet where the fax is plugged in.
• Never plug or unplug the fax when your hands are wet.
• For your safety, unplug the fax during electrical storms.
• If you have problems with the fax (smoke, odd smells or noises), immediately unplug the fax
from the outlet. Keep the area around the outlet free from clutter so you can unplug the fax
quickly in case of an emergency.
• Never use liquids or drink beverages around the fax. Liquids spilled on the fax can cause a
fire or electrical shock. If you accidentally spill a liquid on the fax, unplug it immediately and
call your Canon service representative.
• To avoid electrical shock from exposed power points, never disassemble the fax. There are
no parts or switches in the fax that require adjustment.
