Setting Up
Phone and Electrical Requirements
Do:
Do place the fax machine near a wall outlet, so you can easily unplug it.
Do use an electrical surge protector. This will shield your fax machine
from high-voltage electrical surges that may damage it. Many surge
protectors guard both telephone and electrical lines.
Do plug your fax machine into a standard three-pronged 230 V
AC
electrical outlet.
Do leave your fax machine plugged in so you never miss a fax.
In standby, your fax machine uses only about as much electricity as a
clock radio.
Don’t:
Don’t connect to a multi-line (PBX) office phone system without first
checking with your PBX’s manufacturer or service representative.
Don’t plug your fax machine into an electrical outlet controlled by a wall
switch; you’ll risk missing fax messages.
Don’t plug your fax machine into the same outlet as a large appliance
such as a refrigerator or air conditioner. High-consumption appliances
can cause electrical “draw-downs” ---- temporary drops in power available
for other equipment on the circuit ---- and could damage your fax
machine.

Tips for Use
To keep your fax machine in perfect working order, be sure to install it away
from:
•
Dust ---- Dust build-up can damage your fax machine.
•
Splashes ---- Keep your fax machine away from sinks, water fountains, and
other sources of splash and spray.
•
Vibration ---- Keep your fax machine on a level, vibration-free surface to
improve performance and system life.

machine. Don’t install it in direct sunlight and never cover it with a cloth or
dust cover.
