Precautions for Power and Ground (earthed) Connections

WARNING

Use the printer within the specified power range.

AC power: 100-127 VAC ± 10% (90V-140V) or 220-240 VAC ± 10% (198V-264V)

Frequency: 50 ± 3Hz/60 ± 3Hz

Ensure that the power cord connector and power socket are free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated connector can, over time, draw non-negligible amounts of current that can generate heat and eventually cause fire.

Do not attempt to modify, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the power cord. Do not place objects on the power cord. A damaged power cord can cause fire or electric shocks.

Never touch a power cord with wet hands. This constitutes an electric shock hazard.

In the following situations, stop using the printer immediately, turn it off, and disconnect the power cord from the socket. After that, contact your dealer or authorized Brother service representative immediately. Continued use of the printer in such situations could result in fire.

•There is smoke emanating from the printer or the outside of the printer is excessively hot.

•Unusual noises are coming from the printer.

•There is water inside the printer.
