PRECAUTIONS

Precautionary notations throughout the text are categorized relative to 1) personal injury, and 2) damage

to equipment:

DANGER

Signals a precaution which, if ignored, could result in serious or fatal personal

injury. Great caution should be exercised in performing procedures preceded by

a DANGER headings.

WARNING

Signals a precaution which, if ignored, could result in damage to equipment.

The precautionary measures itemized below should always be observed when performing repair/main-

tenance procedures.

DANGER

1. ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE PRODUCT FROM BOTH THE POWER SOURCE AND THE

HOST COMPUTER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE OR REPAIR

PROCEDURE.

2. NO WORK SHOULD BE PERFORMED ON THE UNIT BY PERSONS UNFAMILIAR WITH

BASIC SAFETY MEASURES AS DICTATED FOR ALL ELECTRONICS TECHNICIANS IN

THEIR LINE OF WORK.

3. WHEN PERFORMING TESTING AS DICTATED WITHIN THIS MANUAL, DO NOT

CONNECT THE UNIT TO A POWER SOURCE UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO. WHEN

THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE MUST BE CONNECTED, USE EXTREME CAUTION IN

WORKING ON POWER SUPPLY AND OTHER ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS.

W A R N I N G

1. REPAIRS ON EPSON PRODUCT SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY BY AN EPSON

CERTIFIED REPAIR TECHNICIAN.

2. MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE SOURCE VOLTAGE IS THE SAME AS THE RATED

VOLTAGE, LISTED ON THE SERIAL NUMBER/RATING PLATE. IF THE EPSON PROD-

UCT HAS A PRIMARY-AC RATING DIFFERENT FROM THE AVAILABLE POWER

SOURCE, DO NOT CONNECT IT TO THE POWER SOURCE.

3. ALWAYS VERIFY

EPSON PRODUCT HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE

POWER SOURCE BEFORE REMOVING OR REPLACING PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS

AND/OR INDIVIDUAL CHIPS.

4. IN ORDER TO PROTECT SENSITIVE

CHIPS AND CIRCUITRY, USE STATIC

DISCHARGE EQUIPMENT, SUCH AS ANTI-STATIC WRIST STRAPS, WHEN ACCESS-

ING INTERNAL COMPONENTS.

5. REPLACE MALFUNCTIONING COMPONENTS ONLY WITH THOSE COMPONENTS

RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER; INTRODUCTION OF SECOND-SOURCE

OR OTHER NONAPPROVED COMPONENTS MAY DAMAGE THE PRODUCT AND

VOID ANY APPLICABLE EPSON WARRANTY.
