Getting Started

Setting Up

Phone and Electrical Requirements

Do: Do place the fax machine near a wall outlet, so you can easily unplug it. Do use an electrical surge protector. This will shield your fax machine from high-voltage electrical surges that may damage it. Many surge protectors guard both telephone and electrical lines.

Do plug your fax machine into a standard three-pronged 230 VAC electrical outlet.

Do leave your fax machine plugged in so you never miss a fax.

In standby, your fax machine uses only about as much electricity as a clock radio.

Don’t: Don’t connect to a multi-line (PBX) office phone system without first checking with your PBX’s manufacturer or service representative.

Don’t plug your fax machine into an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch; you’ll risk missing fax messages.

Don’t plug your fax machine into the same outlet as a large appliance such as a refrigerator or air conditioner. High-consumption appliances can cause electrical “draw-downs” ---- temporary drops in power available

for other equipment on the circuit ---- and could damage your fax

machine.

Tips for Use

To keep your fax machine in perfect working order, be sure to install it away from:

Dust ---- Dust build-up can damage your fax machine.

Splashes ---- Keep your fax machine away from sinks, water fountains, and other sources of splash and spray.

Vibration ---- Keep your fax machine on a level, vibration-free surface to improve performance and system life.

Overheating ---- Allow at least 30 cm (12 inches) of clearance around your fax machine. Don’t install it in direct sunlight and never cover it with a cloth or dust cover.
