Important Precautions and Safety Information
When using this machine, these basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock and injury to people:
1 Read and understand all instructions.
2 Use common sense whenever operating electrical appliances.
3 Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine and in the
literature accompanying the machine.
4 If an operating instruction appears to conflict with safety information,
heed the safety information. You may have misunderstood the
operating instruction. If you cannot resolve the conflict, contact your
sales or service representative for assistance.
5 Unplug the machine from the AC wall socket and/or telephone jack
before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp
cloth for cleaning.
6 Do not place the machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. It may
fall, causing serious damage.
7 Your machine should never be placed on, near or over a radiator, heater,
air conditioner or ventilation duct.
8 Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate your
machine where the cords will be abused by persons walking on them.
9 Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords. This can diminish
performance, and may result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
10 Do not allow pets to chew on the AC power, telephone or PC interface
cords.
11 Never push objects of any kind into the machine through case or cabinet
openings. They may touch dangerous voltage points, creating a risk of
fire or shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the machine.
12 Your machine may have a heavy cover for optimal pressure on the
document for the best scanning and/or faxing (usually the flatbed-type
of machine). In this case, replace the cover after placing document on
the scan glass, by holding and moving it down slowly until it seats on its
location.
13 To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the machine.
Take it to a qualified service technician when repair work is required.
Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or
other risks. Incorrect reassembly could cause electric shock when the
unit is subsequently used.
14 Unplug the machine from the telephone jack, PC and AC wall outlet and
refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
•When any part of the power cord, plug or connecting cable is damaged
or frayed.
•If liquid has been spilled into the machine.
•If the machine has been exposed to rain or water.
•If the machine does not operate properly after instructions have been
followed.
•If the machine has been dropped, or the cabinet appears damaged.
•If the machine exhibits a sudden and distinct change in performance.
15 Adjust only those controls covered by the operating instructions.
Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage, and may
require extensive work by a qualified service technician to restore the
machine to normal operation.
16 The Power cord supplied with your machine should be used for safe
operation. If you are using a cord which is longer than 2 m with 110 V
machine, then it should be 16 AWG
a
or bigger.
