Operating Procedure
(1) Press the 3 and 2 keys in this order in the initial stage of the maintenance mode. The
equipment beeps 1100 Hz and 400 Hz tones cyclically through the following volumes for
testing the speaker.
NOTE: To stop beeping, press the Function key (American models) or Menu key (European
models).
If the sensing status are as listed below, the LCD will show the following:
"DFDRCVRSTNPOHKR2" and "MNCSC2" (which can be switched by pressing the Start
key) on American models
"DFDRCVRSTNPO
R2" and "MNCSC2" (which can be switched by pressing the Start
key) on European models
Given below is the relationship between the LCD indication, sensor names and sensor status.
LCD Sensors Sensing status
DF Document front sensor No document detected.
DR Document rear sensor No document detected.
CV Cover sensor Front cover closed.
RS Registration sensor No paper detected.
TN Toner sensor No toner detected.
PO Paper ejection sensor No paper jam.
HK Hook switch sensor* On-hook state.
R2 2nd registration sensor** No paper detected.
MN Manual insertion sensor No paper detected.
CS Cassette sensor No paper cassette loaded.
C2 2nd cassette sensor** No paper cassette loaded.
(**These error indications will always be displayed in models not equipped with a 2nd paper cassette.)
(2) Change the detecting conditions (e.g., insert paper through the document sensors or the
registration sensor(s), open the front cover, remove the toner cartridge, jam paper at the
paper outlet, lift up the handset*, insert paper manually through the paper slot, and load the
paper cassette(s)), and then check that the indication on the LCD changes according to the
sensor states.
(3) To stop this operation and return the equipment to the initial stage of the maintenance mode,
press the Stop key.
NOTE: If you have opened and closed the front cover during the above procedure, you need to
open and close the front cover again upon completion of the procedure.
