CAUTIONS

Follow the cautions below when using this copier.

●

The fusing area is hot. Exercise care in this area when removing misfed paper.

●

Do not look directly at the light source. Doing so may damage your eyes.

●

Place the copier on a firm, level surface.

●

Do not install the copier in a humid or dusty location.

●

When the copier is not used for a long time, for example, during prolonged holidays, turn the power
switch off and remove the power cord from the outlet.

●

When moving the copier, be sure to turn the power switch off and remove the power cord from the
outlet.

●

Do not cover the copier with a dust cover, cloth or plastic film while the power is on. Doing so may
prevent heat dissipation, damaging the copier.

●

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may
