Maintenance and Inspections
WARNING
•
When cleaning the machine, first turn
OFF the main power switch, then
disconnect the power cord. Failure to
observe these steps may result in a fire
or electrical shock.
•
Unplug the power plug periodically
and clean with a dry cloth to remove
dust and grime. Accumulated dust may
absorb humidity in the air and may
result in a fire if it comes into contact
with electricity.
•
Clean the machine using a slightly
dampened cloth with a mild detergent
mixed with water. Do not use
alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or
other flammable substances. Check
detergent for flammability prior to use.
If flammable substances come into
contact with a high-voltage area inside
the machine, it may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
•
There are some areas inside the
machine which are subject to high-
voltages. When removing jammed
paper or when inspecting the inside of
the machine, do not allow necklaces,
bracelets, or other metal objects to
touch the inside of the machine, as this
may result in burns or electrical shock.
•
Do not burn or throw used toner
cartridges into open flames, as this may
cause the toner remaining inside the
cartridges to ignite, resulting in burns
or a fire.
•
Make sure that the power plug is firmly
inserted into the power outlet after
cleaning the machine. Do not use the
machine while the connection is loose,
as doing so may cause a fire.
•
Check the power cord and power plug
regularly. If the following conditions
occur, contact your local authorized
Canon dealer, as the condition may
cause a fire:
–
There are burn marks on the power
plug.
–
The blade on the power plug is
deformed or broken.
–
The power goes OFF and ON when the
power cord is bent.
–
There are cuts, cracks, or indentations
on the power cord.
–
A part of the power cord becomes hot.
•
Check the power cord and power plug
regularly to make sure that they are
not handled in the following manner,
as this may result in a fire or electrical
shock:
–
The connection part of the power plug
is loose.
–
Stress is being applied to the power
cord by a heavy object or by affixing it
with staples.
–
The power plug is loose.
–
The power cord is tied in a bundle.
–
The power cord protrudes into a
walkway.
–
The power cord is in front of a heater.
•
Do not press down hard on the feeder
when using the platen glass to make
copies of thick books. Doing so may
damage the platen glass and result in
personal injury.
•
Do not touch the finisher while the
machine is printing, as this may result
in personal injury.
•
Paper that has just been output from
the machine may be hot. Be careful
when removing or aligning paper from
the output tray. Touching paper right
after it is output may result in low-
temperature burns.
•
Do not place your hands, hair, clothing,
etc., near the exit and feed rollers. Even
if the machine is not in operation,
your hands, hair, or clothing may get
caught in the rollers, which may result
in personal injury or damage if the
machine suddenly starts printing.
•
Do not place your hands in the part of
the tray where stapling is performed
(near the rollers) when a finisher is
attached, as this may result in personal
injury.
•
Do not insert your hand into the
machine while the paper drawer is
removed, as this may result in personal
injury.
•
The laser beam can be harmful to
human bodies. Since radiation emitted
inside the product is completely
confined within protective housings
and external covers, the laser beam
cannot escape from the machine
during any phase of user operation.
Read the following remarks and
instructions for safety.
–
Never open covers other than those
instructed in the manuals for this
machine.
–
If the laser beam escapes from the
machine, exposure may cause serious
damage to your eyes.
–
Controlling, adjusting, or operating the
machine in ways not mentioned in the
manuals for this machine may cause
dangerous radiation to escape from
the machine.
IMPORTANT
Press
(Energy Saver) for safety when
the machine will not be used for a long
period of time, such as overnight. Also,
turn OFF the main power switch, and
disconnect the power cord for safety
when the machine will not be used for an
extended period of time, such as during
consecutive holidays.
Handling
WARNING
•
Do not attempt to disassemble
or modify the machine. There are
high-temperature and highvoltage
components inside the machine which
may result in a fire or electrical shock.
•
If the machine makes strange noises, or
gives off smoke, heat, or strange smells,
immediately turn OFF the main power
switch, and disconnect the power
cord from the power outlet. Then,
contact your local authorized Canon
dealer. Continued use of the machine
in this condition may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
•
Do not use highly flammable sprays
near the machine. If gas from these
sprays comes into contact with the
electrical components inside the
machine, it may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
•
To avoid damage to the power cord
and creating a fire hazard, always
turn OFF the main power switch,
and unplug the interface cable when
moving the machine. Otherwise, the
power cord or interface cable may be
damaged, resulting in a fire or electrical
shock.
•
Make sure that the power plug is firmly
inserted into the power outlet if the
machine was moved. Do not use the
machine while the connection is loose,
as doing so may cause a fire.
•
Do not drop paper clips, staples, or
other metal objects inside the machine.
Also, do not spill water, liquids, or
flammable substances (alcohol,
benzene, paint thinner, etc.) inside
the machine. If these items come into
contact with a high-voltage area inside
the machine, it may result in a fire
or electrical shock. If these items are
dropped or spilled inside the machine,
immediately turn OFF the main power
switch, and disconnect the power cord
from the power outlet. Then, contact
your local authorized Canon dealer.
CAUTION
•
Do not place heavy objects on the
machine, as they may tip over or fall
resulting in personal injury.
•
Close the feeder gently to avoid
catching your hands, as this may result
in personal injury.
•
Close the feeder gently to avoid
catching your hands in the back of the
feeder, as this may result in personal
injury.
