When You Cannot Check Discharged Fluid Level in Drain Bottle
WARNING
Never place discharged fluid and ink near open flame.
Doing so may cause fire.
CAUTION
To store discharged fluid temporarily, place it in the included drain bottle
or in a durable sealed container such as a metal can or polyethylene tank,
and cap tightly.
Any spillage or vapor leakage make cause fire, odor, or physical distress.
Discard discharged fluid properly, in accordance with the laws in effect in your locale.
Discharged fluid is flammable and contains toxic ingredients. Never attempt to incinerate discharged fluid or
discard it with ordinary trash. Also, do not discard it in sewer systems, rivers, or streams. Doing so may have
an adverse impact on the environment.
Splashed ink inside the drain bottle surface may not allow you to easily check the amount of dis-
charged fluid in the drain bottle. If the inner surface is not visible, clean the drain bottle in the fol-
lowing way when discarding the discharged fluid.
