Getting To Know Your Machine
Be sure to switch Off, and unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the
machine for cleaning, maintenance or fault clearance. Access to a live machine’s interior
can cause an electric shock.
Once a month, unplug the machine and check the power cord for the following. If you
notice any unusual condition, contact your authorized Panasonic dealer.
● The power cord is plugged firmly into the receptacle.
● The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
● The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
● The cord is not cracked or frayed.
Operating Safeguards
Do not touch areas where these caution labels are attached to, the surface may be very
hot and may cause severe burns.
Do not place any liquid container such as a vase, or coffee cup on the machine. Spilt
water can cause fire or shock hazard.
Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the machine. If metal and
flammable parts get into the machine, they can short-circuit internal components, and
cause fire or electric shocks.
If debris (metal or liquid) gets into the machine, switch Off and unplug the machine
immediately. Contact your authorized Panasonic dealer. Operating a debris-
contaminated machine can cause fire or electric shock.
Never open or remove machine covers that are secured with screws unless specifically
instructed in the “Operating Instructions”. A high voltage component can cause electric
shocks.
Do not try to alter the machine configuration or modify any parts. An unauthorized
modification can cause smoke or fire.
Consumable Safeguards
Never dispose of toner, toner bottles, or a toner waste container into an open flame.
Toner remaining in the cartridge/bottle can cause an explosion, burns and/or injuries.
Keep button batteries/stamp out of the reach of children. If a button battery/stamp is
swallowed accidentally, get medical treatment immediately.
