Your OKI product has been carefully designed to give you
years of safe, reliable performance. As with all electrical
equipment, there are a few basic precautions you should
take to avoid hurting yourself or damaging the product.
• Carefully read the provided setup and operating
instructions.
• Save all provided documentation for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the
product itself.
• Unplug the product before you clean it. Use only a damp
cloth; do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Place your product on a firm, solid surface. If you put
it on something unsteady, it may fall and be damaged.
If you place it on a soft surface, such as a rug, sofa, or
cushion, the vents may be blocked, causing the product
to overheat.
• Protect your product from overheating. Make sure no
obstructions block the openings of the product. Do not
put the product on or near a heat source (such as a
radiator or heat register). Keep the product out of direct
sunlight.
• Always use this product in a well ventilated area.
Allow enough room around the product for adequate
ventilation and easy access to the paper trays. If you
put the product in any kind of enclosure, make sure the
enclosure is well ventilated.
• Do not use your product near water. Do not spill liquid of
any kind into it.
• Be certain that your power source matches the rating
listed on the back of the product. If you are not
sure, check with your dealer or with your local power
company.
• Do not connect this product to an uninterruptible power
supply (UPS). For further information please contact Oki
Data at 1-800-OKI-DATA.
• Your product has a grounded, three-prong plug as a
safety feature. This plug only fits into a grounded outlet.
If the plug does not fit, the outlet may be an older,
non-grounded type. Contact an electrician to have the
outlet replaced. Do not use an adapter to defeat the
grounding.
• Install the product near an easily accessed power outlet.
• Avoid damaging the power cord. Do not put anything
on it or place it where it will be walked on. If the cord
becomes damaged or frayed, replace it immediately.
• If you are using an extension cord or power strip with
the product, make sure that the total of the amperes
required by all the equipment on the extension is less
than the extension’s rating. The total ratings of all
equipment plugged into the outlet should not exceed 15
amperes.
• Do not poke anything into the ventilation slots of the
product. You could get an electrical shock or cause
hazardous electrical arcing, which could cause a fire.
• Aside from the routine maintenance described in the
documentation, do not try to service the product
yourself. Removing the cover may expose you to shocks
or other hazards.
• Do not make any adjustments other than those
outlined in the documentation. You may cause damage
that will require extensive repair work. The provided
documentation explains how to get your product
serviced by qualified Oki Data technicians.
If anything happens that indicates that your product is
not working properly or has been damaged, unplug it
immediately and follow the procedures in the provided
documentation for having your product serviced.
Here are some of the things to look for.
• The power cord or plug is frayed or damaged.
