CAUTION: Do not remove a cold material cartridge from the printer that has started the warming stage. Doing
so could cause damage to the material cartridge and the MDM . Wait the required 15 minutes if it is necessary to
remove cartridges.
CAUTION: When fully melted hot material cartridges are removed from the MDM, do not lay the cartridges on the
side; the material will solidify in the vent cap cause the vent to clog. Do not reuse the cartridge in the MDM without
turning the clogged vent cap, 1 1/2 turns. Doing so will cause the cartridge to collapse and may cause damage to
the MDM .
CAUTION: Please keep bottles clean to avoid any chemical or particulate contamination of the bottle surface or
bottle cap . Any contamination can be transferred from the bottle to the MDM and cause problems . The MDM must
also be kept clean from chemicals or particulate contamination .
After powering on the printer, there is a 15 minute warm-up period before the material cartridges can be
installed . The user touchscreen will direct you when the printer is warm enough to install material cartridges .
