SAFETY
Your fax machine has been carefully designed to give you years
of safe, reliable performance. As with all electrical equipment,
however, there are a few basic precautions you should take to
avoid hurting yourself or damaging the fax machine.
General
• Read this user's guide carefully and keep it in a safe but
accessible place so that you can use it for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the
fax machine itself.
• Disconnect the fax machine before you clean it. DO NOT
use liquid or aerosol cleaners to clean the fax machine.
• Place your fax machine on a firm, solid surface. If you place
the fax machine on something unsteady, it may fall and
become damaged or injure someone. If you place the fax
machine on a soft surface, such as a rug, sofa, or bed, the
vents may become blocked causing the fax machine to
overheat.
• Do not use your fax machine near water, or spill liquid of
any kind into it.
Installation Hints
• Install your fax machine in a dust-free location away from
direct sunlight.
• Do not connect your fax machine to a power source that is
used by other equipment producing electrical noise (i.e.,
air conditioners, etc.).
• Leave electronic adjustments to authorized service
personnel.
• The LINE terminal connects your fax machine to a standard
telephone line. To avoid damage to your telephone system
or to the fax machine, do not connect your fax machine into
anything other than a standard telephone socket.
• Your fax machine has an earthed, 3-pin plug as a safety
feature and it will only connect to an earthed outlet. If you
cannot connect this plug to your power outlet, then it is
possible that you have an older, non-earthed outlet. Contact
an electrician to have your power outlet replaced. Do not
use an adapter to defeat the earthing.
• The electrical power outlet should be located near the fax
machine and should be easily accessible.
• The two TEL ports on the back of the fax machine are only
suitable for 2 wire devices. Not all standard telephones will
respond to incoming ringing when connected to an extension
socket.
