To ensure the optimum performance of the copier, follow the precautions listed below.
• Never place a heavy object on the copier.
• Never subject the copier to shocks.
• Never open any doors or turn the copier off while the copier is making copies.
• Never bring any magnetized object near the copier.
• Never use flammable sprays, liquids or gases near the copier.
• Never modify the copier, as a fire or electrical shock could result.
• Never remove any panel or cover which is secured. The copier contains high voltage
components which can cause electrical shock.
• Never tamper with the laser mechanism on laser-equipped models, as blindness or
other injury may result.
• Never drop paper clips, staples or other small pieces of metal through the vents or
other openings in the copier, as a fire or electrical shock can result.
• Never place containers of liquid on the copier. If liquids get inside the copier, they
can cause fire or electrical shock. If a piece of metal or any liquid gets inside the
copier, immediately turn the copier off, unplug the power cord and call your
technical representative. A fire or electrical shock can result if the copier remains
plugged in or is operated after metal or liquid gets inside.
• Never leave the copier running if it becomes unusually hot, or if smoke or an
unusual odor or noise is detected. Should any of these conditions occur,
immediately turn the copier off, unplug the power cord and call your technical
representative. A fire or electrical shock can result if the copier remains plugged in
under any of these conditions.
• Always insert the power plug all the way into the outlet.
• Always make sure that the outlet is visible, clear of the copier or copier cabinet.
• Always provide good ventilation when making a large number of continuous copies.
• Never pull on the power cord, and always hold the plug when unplugging the power
cord. A damaged cord could result in a fire or cause an electrical shock.
• Never unplug the power cord with a wet hand, as it could cause an electrical shock.
• Always unplug the power cord before moving the copier. Moving the copier with
the power cord plugged in can damage the cord resulting in a fire or causing an
electrical shock.
• Always unplug the power cord when the copier is not going to be used for a long
time.
• Never place a heavy object on the power cord, or pull or bend it, as a fire or
electrical shock can result.
• Always ensure that the copier does not sit on or move onto the power cord or
communications cable of other electrical equipment, as malfunctioning equipment
or a fire could result.
• Always ensure that the power cord or communications cable of other electrical
equipment does not become wedged into the copier mechanism, as malfunctioning
equipment or a fire could result.
