Safety Precautions
WARNING
P-touch
Follow these guidelines to avoid fire, electric shock, the risk of injury to yourself or
others, and/or damage to the printer or other property.
DO NOT allow the printer to get wet or
use the printer in areas that may become
wet, such as bathrooms or near sinks.
DO NOT touch any metal parts near the
print head. The print head becomes very
hot during use and remains very hot
immediately after use. Do not touch it
directly with your hands.
DO NOT disassemble the P-touch.
For inspection, adjustment, and repair of
the printer, contact Brother customer
service.
Plastic bags are used in the packaging
of your printer. To avoid danger of
suffocation, keep these bags away from
babies and children.
If you notice heat, an abnormal odour,
discolouration of the printer,
deformation, or anything else unusual
while using or storing the printer,
immediately discontinue use of the
printer, disconnect the AC adapter, and
remove the batteries.
To prevent damage, do not drop or hit
the P-touch.
DO NOT use the P-touch with a foreign object in it. If water, a metallic substance, or
any other foreign object enters the P-touch, disconnect the AC adapter and remove
batteries, and contact Brother customer service.
Alkaline batteries/Ni-MH rechargeable batteries
Follow these guidelines to avoid liquid leakage, heat, rupture of the battery and cause
personal injury.
DO NOT throw into fire, heat up, short-
circuit, recharge, or disassemble the
battery.
DO NOT allow batteries to get wet, for
example, by handling them with wet
hands or spilling beverages onto them.
If fluid leaked from the batteries gets into
your eyes, immediately rinse your eyes
with a large amount of clean water, and
then seek medical attention. If leaked
fluid enters your eyes, loss of eyesight or
other damage to the eyes may result.
DO NOT allow a metal object to contact
both the plus and minus ends of a
battery.
DO NOT use sharp objects, such as
tweezers or a metallic pen, to remove or
replace the batteries.
DO NOT use a damaged, deformed, or
leaking battery, or a battery whose label
is damaged. Doing so may result in
generating excessive heat. Use of a
damaged or leaking battery may also
lead to battery fluid getting on your
hands. If fluid leaked from the batteries
gets onto your hands, there is a
possibility of chemical burns. If leaked
fluid gets onto your hands and you rub
your eyes, loss of eyesight or other
damage to the eyes may result.
Immediately rinse your hands with a
large amount of clean water, and then
seek medical attention.
