What You Need
to Know
Since your postage meter (Postal Security Device) is licensed by the
United States Postal Service (USPS), you must follow a few basic require-
ments.
USPS
Requirements
• Mail must have the correct date and postage amount in the meter
stamp.
• Metered mail must bear the ZIP Code location of the post office where
the post
age meter (Postal Security Device) is registered.
• If you move to another ZIP Code location, you must update the ZIP
Code. Y
ou can do this by calling Postage by Phone®.
• Each time you refill your postage meter (Postal Security Device)
through th
e modem, the Postage By Phone® Meter Payment System
computer automatically performs a postal inspection. If the postage
meter in your mailing machine has not detected a modem refill transac-
tion at certain intervals, the message “Inspection Required” appears on
the
main screen of the IntelliLink® Control Center. (The system will then
prompt you to connect to Pitney Bowes and perform an inspection.)
• The postage tape you use must meet USPS specificat
ions.
Safety
Requirements
Read all instructions before you attempt to operate the machine. Use
the equipment only for its intended purpose.
• Use only Pitney Bowes approved supplies, in particular aerosol dust-
ers. Improper storage and use of aerosol dusters or flammable aerosol
dusters, can cause an explosive-like co
ndition tha
t could result in a per-
sonal injury and/or property damage. Never use aerosol dusters
labele
d flammable and always read instructions and safety precautions
on the duster container label.
• Use the power cord supplied with the machine and plug it into a prop-
erly grounded wall outlet located near the machine and easily accessi-
ble. Failure to properly ground the machine can result in severe
per
sona
l injury and/or fire.
• The power cord wall plug is the pr
imary means of disconnecting the
machine from the AC supply.

adapter
.
• Make sure the area in front of the power outlet is free of obstruction.
• DO NOT route the power cord over sharp edges or trap it between
pieces of furnitu
re. Make sure there is no strain on it.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, DO NOT attempt t

covers or disassemble the equipment. The housing encloses hazard-
ous parts. If any components are dropped or otherwise damaged,
report su
ch damage to your Pitney Bowes customer service represen-
tative.
• Keep fingers, long hair, jewelry, neck ties, and loose clothing away
from
moving parts at all times.
