ENGLISH
Others
The machine has a built-in circuit for protection against lightning-induced surge current. If lightning
strikes in your neighborhood, maintain ample distance from the machine and do not touch the
machine until the lightning has stopped.
Installation and Relocation
Cautions
Do not place the machine near heaters or
volatile, flammable, or combustible
materials such as curtains that may catch
fire.
Do not place the machine in a hot, humid,
dusty or poorly ventilated environment.
Prolonged exposure to these adverse
conditions can cause fire or electric
shocks.
When moving the machine, be sure to
unplug the power cord from the outlet. If
the machine is moved with the power cord
attached, it can cause damage to the cord
which could result in fire or electric shock.
Place the machine on a level and sturdy
surface that can withstand a weight of
50.7lb (23kg). If tilted, the machine may
tip-over and cause injuries.
When relocating the machine, contact
your authorized Panasonic dealer.
Operating Safeguards
Do not place a magnet near the safety
switch of the machine. A magnet can
activate the machine accidentally,
resulting in injuries.
Do not use a highly flammable spray or
solvent near the machine. It can cause
fire.
Do not use conductive paper, e.g. folding
paper, carbonic paper and coated paper.
When a paper jam occurs, they can cause
a short circuit and fire.
Never touch a labelled area found on or
near the heat roller. You can get burnt. If a
sheet of paper is wrapped around the heat
roller, do not try to remove it yourself to
avoid injuries or burns. Disconnect the
power cord from the machine immediately,
and contact your authorized Panasonic
dealer.
Keep the room ventilated when using the
machine for an extended period of time to
minimize the ozone density in the air.
Pull out paper trays slowly to prevent
injuries.
When removing jammed paper, make
sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in
the machine. A piece of paper remaining
in the machine can cause fire. If a sheet of
paper is wrapped around the heat roller, or
when clearing a jammed paper that is
difficult or impossible to see, do not try to
remove it by yourself. Doing so can cause
injuries or burns. Disconnect the power
cord from the machine immediately, and
contact your authorized Panasonic dealer.
Consumable Safeguards
Never heat the drum cartridge, or scratch
its surface. A heated or scratched drum
can be hazardous to your health.
