C, 89.6
°
F)
• Humidity: 15-80% (temperature to
be 27 °C, 80.6 °F at 80%)
• A strong and level base.
• The machine must be level within
5 mm, 0.2 inches: both front to rear
and left to right.
• To avoid possible buildup of
ozone, make sure to locate this ma-
chine in a large well ventilated
room that has an air turnover of
more than 30 m
3
/hr/person.
Environments to avoid
• Locations exposed to direct sun-
light or other sources of strong
light (more than 1,500 lux).
• Locations directly exposed to cool
air from an air conditioner or heat-
ed air from a heater. (Sudden tem-
perature changes can cause
condensation to form inside the
machine.)
• Locations close to machines gener-
ating ammonia, such as a diazo
copy machine.
• Places where the machine will be
subject to frequent strong vibra-
tion.
•Dusty areas.
• Areas with corrosive gases.
Moving
R
CAUTION:
Important
❒ Be careful when moving the ma-
chine. Take the following precau-
tions:
• Turn off the main power. See
p.24 “Turning Off the Main
Power”.
•Unplug the power cord from
the wall outlet. When you pull
out the plug from the socket,
grip the plug to avoid damag-
ing the cord, thereby reducing
the risk of fire or electric shock.
• Close all covers and trays, in-
cluding the front cover and by-
pass tray.
• Keep the machine away from hu-
midity and dust. Otherwise a fire
or an electric shock might occur.
• Do not place the machine on an
unstable or tilted surface. If it top-
ples over, an injury might occur.
• If you use the machine in a con-
fined space, make sure there is a
continuous air turnover.
• Unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet before you move the
machine. While moving the ma-
chine, you should take care that
the power cord will not be dam-
aged under the machine.
