Notes for safe operation
(continued)
Pull out the power plug before cleaning the machine.
• This is for preventing electric shocks.
Pull out the power plug when you won’t use the
machine for a prolonged period of time to assure
safety.
• Remove the power plug from the outlet for safety when you
won’t use the machine for a long time.
Do not move the machine with the power cable and
other electric cables connected.
• The cables may be damaged while being moved, which may
cause a fire or electric shock.
• You may stumble over the cable and get injured.
Do not move the machine with objects placed on it.
• They may fall on you and hurt you.
Do not put heavy objects on the machine.
• They may fall on you and hurt you.
Do not block the vents.
• Heat generated inside the machine cannot escape, which
may cause a fire.
Be sure to work with two persons when you unpack,
move or lift the machine.
• If you work alone, you may be injured by the fallen machine
or hurt your back by lifting a heavy machine by yourself.
Inspection
• Ask you dealer or a qualified person to inspect the machine,
typically once every two to three years. Operating the
machine with dusts piling on the components for a prolonged
period of time may cause a fire or a malfunction of the
machine. It will be particularly effective to inspect the
machine before wet rainy season. Consult your dealer on
the costs of inspection.
Do not put the machine at a place where it will be
wet with steam (e.g., from a humidifier), or at a
excessively humid or dusty place.
• The oil, water and dusts act as conductors, which may
cause a fire or electric shock.
CAUTION
Ground the machine with the attached electric cord
when connecting it to the utility outlet.
• Using a cord other than the one supplied for grounding may
cause an electric shock when the machine fails.
Do not put your head or yourself into the packaging
bag.
• Do not play with the packaging bag. You may suffocate
yourself.
• Give close attention to small children who may want to play
with the packaging bag.
Do not use the machine while it has a fault.
• Do not use the machine while it has a fault, as this may
cause a fire or electric shock.
• Immediately turn off the power, pull out the power plug, and
ask your dealer to repair. Do not try to repair it by yourself. It
is dangerous.
Do not use the power supply code of the attachment
excluding this machine.It may cause a fire or electric
shock.
Do not put the machine at a place where it becomes
excessively hot.
• The surface and internal components may deteriorate. Also
there is a danger of a fire. Special care should be taken for
exposure to direct sunlight or a heater adjacent to the
machine.
Hold the body of the power plug when pulling it out.
• Do not pull out the plug by holding the cable. The cable may
be broken or damaged which may in turn cause a fire or
electric shock.
Do not touch the power plug with a wet hand
• You may get an electric shock.
Do not lay the power cable near the heating
equipment.
• The covering of the cable will melt due to heat from such
equipment, which may cause a fire or electric shock.
The heat rollers and adjacent areas become hot
during operation.
• Be careful not to touch the heat rollers and adjacent areas
when replacing the ink ribbon or retransfer film, or remove
jammed cards.
• Wait until the heat rollers get cooled down to prevent burns.
Be careful of jamming your hand or fingers in the card
tray, card bracket on the hopper, or printer door.
• Replace the ink ribbon or retransfer film, or remove jammed
cards with care not to jam your hand or fingers in the
mechanism, which may cause an injury.
Do not use a power cable other than the specified
cable for connection.
• If you use an unspecified power cable for connection or
extension, heat may accumulate in the cable, causing a fire.
