Safety Notes
Fire, Smoke and Shock Precautions
Do not place any liquid container such as a vase or coffee cup on the machine. Spilled water
can cause a fire or shock hazard.
Do not place any metal part such as staples or clips on the machine. If metal and flammable
parts migrate into the machine, they can short internal components, and cause a fire or shock
hazard.
If debris (metal or liquid) migrates into the machine, switch off and unplug the machine.
Contact your point of purchase. Operating a debris-contaminated machine can cause a fire or
shock hazard.
Never open or remove machine covers that are secured with screws unless specifically
instructed in the "User's Manual."
A high voltage component can cause a shock hazard.
Do not try to alter the machine configuration, or modify any parts. An unauthorized modifi-
cation can cause smoke or fire.
Never throw a drum cartridge into an open flame. Toner remaining in the cartridge can cause
an explosion and you can get burnt.
Do not place a magnet near the safety switch of the machine. A magnet can activate the
machine accidentally, resulting in injuries.
Do not place any heavy object on the machine. An off-balance machine can fall over or the
heavy object can fall, causing injuries.
Do not use a highly flammable spray near the machine. It can cause a fire.
Stop operation immediately if your machine produces smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise,
or smell, or if water is spilled into the machine. These conditions can result in a fire. Immedi-
ately switch off and unplug the machine, and contact your point of purchase.
To prevent a fire or shock hazard, follow the instruction below based on your machine con-
figuration. If in doubt, contact your point of purchase.
Paper Jam Precautions
The fuser becomes very hot in operation. If a paper jam has occurred, turn the power off and
wait at least 40 minutes before removing the drum cartridge and touching the fuser section.
When clearing a jammed paper that is difficult or impossible to see, do not try to remove it
by yourself. Doing so can cause injuries. Contact your point of purchase.
When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in the
machine. A piece of paper remaining in the machine can cause a fire.
If a sheet of paper is not able to be removed or wrapped around the heat roller, do not try to
remove it by yourself. Doing so can cause injuries. Switch off the machine immediately, and
contact your point of purchase.
CAUTION: Do not place the machine near he aters or volatile, flammable, or combustible
materials such as curtains that may catch fire.
