As these instructions are intended to prevent injury to the user and other
persons or to prevent destruction of property, always pay attention to
these instructions and operational requirements.
Also, as it may result in unexpected accidents or injuries, do not perform
any operation unless otherwise specified in the manual.
WARNING
• Do not install the machine in a location near alcohol, paint thinner, or
other flammable substances. If flammable substances come into contact
with electrical parts inside the machine, this may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
• Do not place the following items on the machine.
• Necklaces and other metal objects
• Cups, vases, flowerpots, and other containers filled with water or liquids
If these items come into contact with a high-voltage area inside the
machine, this may result in a fire or electrical shock.
If these items are dropped or spilled inside the machine, immediately
turn off the power switches of the machine and computer (1) and
disconnect the interface cable if it is connected (2). Then, unplug
the power plug from the AC power outlet (3) and contact your local
authorized Canon dealer.

CAUTION
• Do not install the machine in unstable locations, such as on unsteady
platforms or inclined floors, or in locations subject to excessive
vibrations, as this may cause the machine to fall or tip over, resulting in
personal injury.
• The ventilation slots are provided for proper ventilation of working parts
inside the machine. Never place the machine on a soft surface, such as a
bed, sofa, or rug. Blocking the slots can cause the machine to overheat,
resulting in a fire.
• Do not install the machine in the following locations, as this may result in
a fire or electrical shock.
• A damp or dusty location
• A location exposed to smoke and steam, such as near a cookery or humidifier
• A location exposed to rain or snow
• A location near a water faucet or water
• A location exposed to direct sunlight
• A location subject to high temperatures
• A location near open flames
• When installing the machine, gently lower the machine to the
installation site so as not to catch your hands between the machine and
the floor or between the machine and other equipment, as this may
result in personal injury.
• When connecting the interface cable, connect it properly by following
the instructions in this manual. If not connected properly, this may result
in malfunction or electrical shock.
• When moving the machine, follow the instructions in this manual to hold
it correctly. Failure to do so may cause you to drop the machine, resulting
in personal injury.
e-Manual “Relocating the Machine”
• Machines with a hard disk may not operate properly when used at high
altitudes of about 3,000 meters above sea level, or higher.
WARNING
• Do not damage or modify the power cord. Also, do not place heavy
objects on the power cord or pull on or excessively bend it. This can
cause electrical damage, resulting in fire or electrical shock.
• Keep the power cord away from all heat sources. Failure to do so can cause
the power cord insulation to melt, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.
• The power cord should not be taut, as this may lead to a loose
connection and cause overheating, which could result in a fire.
• The power cord may become damaged if it is stepped on, fixed with
staples, or if heavy objects are placed on it. Continued use of a damaged
power cord can lead to an accident, such as a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not plug or unplug the power plug with wet hands, as this can result
in electrical shock.
• Do not plug the power cord into a multiplug power strip, as this can
result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not bundle up or tie up the power cord in a knot, as this can result in
a fire or electrical shock.
• Insert the power plug completely into the AC power outlet. Failure to do
so can result in a fire or electrical shock.
• If excessive stress is applied to the connection part of the power cord,
it may damage the power cord or the wires inside the machine may be
disconnected. This could result in a fire. Avoid the following situations:
• Connecting and disconnecting the power cord frequently.
• Tripping over the power cord.
• The power cord is bent near the connection part, and continuous stress is
being applied to the power outlet or the connection part.
• Applying a shock to the power connector.
• Do not use power cords other than the one provided, as this can result in
a fire or electrical shock.
• As a general rule, do not use extension cords. Using an extension cord
may result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Remove the power plug from the AC power outlet and refrain from
using the machine during a thunder storm. Lightning can result in a fire,
electrical shock or malfunction.
CAUTION
• Do not use a power supply voltage other than that listed herein, as this
may result in a fire or electrical shock.
