Safety Precautions

Please read the safety warnings and cautions provided in this guide to ensure that you use your machine safely. Do not attempt to use the machine in any way not described in this guide.

Warning

You may cause an electric shock/fire or damage the machine if you ignore any of these safety precautions.

Location

Do not place the machine close to flammable solvents such as alcohol or thinners. If

 

flammable substances come into contact with electrical parts inside the machine, it may

 

result in fire or electrical shock.

 

 

Power supply

Never attempt to plug or unplug the machine from the power supply when your hands are

 

wet. This may result in electrical shock.

 

 

 

Always push the plug all the way into the power outlet. If the prongs of the power plug

 

come into contact with metal objects, it may result in fire or electrical shock.

 

 

 

Never damage, modify, stretch or excessively bend or twist the power cord. Do not place

 

heavy objects on the power cord. These actions may cause electrical damage and result in

 

fire or electrical shock.

 

 

 

Never plug the machine into a power socket that is shared with other equipment (extension

 

lead/cord, 2- or 3-way adapter, etc.). This may result in fire or electrical shock.

 

 

 

Plug the machine into a standard 110-120 V AC, 50/60 Hz or 200-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz,

 

(depending on your local electrical requirements), two-prong* grounded outlet. Operate the

 

machine only from the type of power source indicated on the machine’s label or a fire,

 

electrical shock, or malfunction may occur. If you are unsure of the type of power available,

 

consult your local power company.

 

* The shape of the plug and outlet may vary depending on the country of purchase.

 

 

 

Do not allow the power cord to be near objects that emit heat. The outer cover of the power

 

cord may melt resulting in fire or electrical shock.

 

 

 

Never use the machine if the power cord is bundled or knotted. Knots in the cord may

 

result in fire or electrical shock.

 

 

 

If you detect smoke, unusual smells or strange noises around the machine, immediately

 

unplug the machine at the power supply and contact the Canon Customer Care Center.

 

Using the machine in such conditions may result in fire or electrical shock.

 

 

 

Periodically, unplug the machine and use a dry cloth to wipe off any dust or dirt collected

 

on the plug and the power outlet.

 

If the machine is placed at a location exposed to a lot of dust, smoke, or high humidity, the

 

dust collected on the plug absorbs moisture and may cause insulation failure and fire.

 

 

Maintenance

Do not service the machine yourself except as specifically described in this guide. If further

 

servicing is required, contact the Canon Customer Care Center.

 

 

 

When storing the machine, choose a location where the machine is not exposed to dust.

 

Dust accumulation may prevent the machine from operating properly.

 

 

 

Use a damp cloth to clean the machine. Never use flammable solvents such as alcohol,

 

benzene or thinners. If flammable solvents come in contact with electrical components

 

inside the machine, it could cause a fire or electrical shock.

 

 

 

Always turn OFF the power and unplug the machine from the power outlet before cleaning

 

the machine.

 

If you leave on or accidentally switch the machine ON while cleaning it, it may result in

 

injury or damage the machine.
