Precautions when using batteries

•The service life of AA alkaline batteries may be shortened depending on the manufac- turer and utilization temperature (particularly low temperatures) and the amount of time that has passed since the batteries were manufactured.

•Remove the batteries from the printer if you are not going to use it for a long time. If you do not, the batteries may leak.
