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 120-240 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.
