General Precautions 23

Other points
yMake sure that there is enough space around the system to facilitate changing of parts,
maintenance and clearing paper jam.
If there is insufficient space, some operations, such as bypass feeding, will become difficult
and the Multifunctional Digital Color Systems could even break down.
To insure optimal operation, allow clearances of at least 31.5" on the right, and 3.9" on the
left and behind.
yBe sure to fix the power cable securely so that no one trips over it.
yAdverse environmental conditions may affect the safe operation and performance of the Mul-
tifunctional Digital Color Systems, and the Multifunctional Digital Color Systems could break
down.
- Avoid locations near windows or with exposure to direct sunlight.
- Avoid locations with drastic temperature fluctuations.
- Avoid too much dust.
- Avoid location that suffer from vibration.
yMake sure that the air is able to flow freely and that there is sufficient ventilation.
With inadequate ventilation, the unpleasant odor released by ozone will begin to dominate
the atmosphere.
When using the Multifunctional Digital Color Systems
Warning
yDo not take off the cover of the equipment; otherwise you could be injured or get an electric
shock.
yDo not remove or connect the plug with wet hands, as this could give you an electric shock.
yDo not place any container with liquid (flower vases, coffee cups, etc.) on or near the equip-
ment. This could cause a fire or give you an electric shock.
yKeep paper clips and staples away from the air vent. If not, a fire could result or you could
get an electric shock.
yIf the Multifunctional Digital Color Systems becomes excessively hot, smoke comes out of it
or there is an odd smell or noise, proceed as follows.
Turn the main switch OFF and remove the plug from the outlet, then contact your service
representative.
yIf the Multifunctional Digital Color Systems will not be used for more than one month, remove
the plug from the outlet for safety purposes during that time.
If an insulation failure occurs, this could cause a fire or give you an electric shock.
