Cautions when using the machine

Warni ng
Do not place metallic objects or containers with water (flower
vases, flower pots, cups, etc.) on or near the machine. This
situation presents a danger of fire or electrical shock should they
fall inside.
Do not remove any of the covers from the machine as there is a
danger of electrical shock from high voltage parts inside the
machine.
Do not damage, break or attempt to repair the power cord. Do not
place heavy objects on the cord, pull it, bend it unnecessarily or
cause any other type of damage. These types of situations
present a danger of fire or electrical shock.
Never attempt to repair or disassemble the machine or its parts as
there is a danger of fire, electrical shock or damage to the laser. If
the laser beam escapes, there is a danger of it causing blindness.
If the machine becomes excessively hot, smoke appears from the
machine, there is an odd smell, or any other abnormal situation
occurs, there is a danger of fire or electrical shock. Turn the main
power switch off ({) immediately, be absolutely certain to remove the
power plug from the outlet and then contact your service representative.
If anything harmful (paper clips, water, other fluids, etc.) falls into
the machine, turn the main power switch off ({) immediately.
Next, be absolutely certain to remove the power plug from the
outlet to avoid the danger of fire or electrical shock. Then contact your
service representative.
Do not remove or connect the power plug with wet hands, as
there is a danger of electrical shock.
Always contact your service representative for maintenance or
repair of internal parts.
Caution
Do not pull the power cord when removing it from the outlet. If the
power cord is pulled, the wires may become broken and there is a
danger of fire or electrical shock. (Always grasp the power plug
when removing the power cord from the outlet.)
Always remove the power plug from the outlet when moving the
machine. If the power cord is damaged, there is a danger of fire or
electrical shock.
If the machine will not be used for a short period of time
(overnight, etc.), turn the power switch off (O). If it will not be used
for an extended period of time (vacations, etc.), remove the power
plug from the outlet for safety purposes during the time the machine is
not in use.
Always hold the designated parts only when lifting or moving the
machine.
For safety purposes, always remove the power plug from the
outlet when performing cleaning operations.
