Safety Precautions
Switch the printer off immediately and remove the power
plug from the power outlet. Contact your Canon dealer or
support center.
Cleaning the Printer
Warning
•
For cleaning, use a cloth dampened in water. Never use
flammable solvents such as alcohol, benzene, or thinner. If
these substances come into contact with electrical compo-
nents inside the printer, there is a risk of fire or electrical
shock.
Caution
•
Always disconnect the power cable from the outlet before
cleaning the printer. If the printer is switched on acciden-
tally, moving parts inside the printer may cause personal
injuries.
Pacemakers
Warning
•
This printer generates a low-level magnetic field. Anyone
wearing a pacemaker who experiences discomfort while
working around the printer should leave the area. Consult
a physician before continuing to work around the printer.
Moving the Printer
Caution
•
Moving the printer requires at least six people, holding it
on both sides. Be careful to avoid back strain and other
injuries.
•
When moving the printer, firmly grasp the carrying handles
under each side. The printer may be unsteady if you hold
it at other positions, which poses a risk of injury from
Printer location
Warning
•
Do not set up the printer in any location exposed to alcohol,
thinner, or other volatile liquids. If these substances come
into contact with electrical components inside the printer,
there is a risk of fire or electrical shock.
Caution
•
Never install the printer on an unstable or vibrating surface.
If it falls over, this could cause personal injury.
•
Never set up the printer in a location that is exposed to
high humidity or large amounts of dust, or exposed to
direct sunlight, high temperature, or open flame. This could
cause a fire or electrical shock. Use the printer location in
an environment where temperature and humidity are within
the ranges of 15 °C to 30 °C (59 °F to 86 °F) and 10 to
80% RH (with no condensation).
•
Never place the printer on a heavy wool or shag carpet.
The fibers may enter the printer and cause a fire.
•
Keep the area around the power outlet clear of items so
that you can disconnect the power cable immediately if the
printer starts operating abnormally. In the event of a printer
malfunction, remove the power cable from the outlet as
soon as possible to prevent fire and electrical shocks.
•
Do not install the printer near sources of strong electromag-
netic fields, whether equipment that generates such fields
or places where such fields occur. This could damage the
printer or cause malfunction.
Power Supply
Warning
•
Never handle the power cable with wet hands. Doing so
may cause electrical shock.
•
Insert the power cable securely and completely into the
power source. If the power cable is not inserted completely,
this could cause a fire or electrical shock.
•
Do not use any power cable other than the one provided.
This could cause a fire or electrical shock. Never use the
power cable with any other electrical device.
•
Never cut the power cable or attempt to modify it, and
never stretch it or bend it forcefully. Never place a heavy
object on the power cable. Damaged sections of the power
cable could cause a short circuit and may cause a fire or
electrical shock.
•
Never connect the power cable to a power strip or any
power source shared by other electrical devices. This could
cause a fire or electrical shock.
•
Never knot the power cable or wrap it around itself. This
could cause a fire or electrical shock.
•
Periodically disconnect the power cable and use a dry
cloth to wipe away dust that has collected on the plug and
the area around the power outlet. Leaving the power cable
plugged in and not cleaned for a long period, especially in
an area subject to dust, oil, and humidity, could cause the
insulation material to deteriorate and lead to a fire.
Caution
•
Always grip the plug to remove the power cable from the
power outlet. Pulling on the power cable could damage the
cable and lead to a fire or electrical shock.
•
Never use an extension cord. This could cause a fire or
electrical shock.
•
Never use any power source other than 100–120 /
220–240 V AC. This could cause a fire or electrical shock.
The printer operating conditions are described below. Use
the printer under the following conditions.
Power supply voltage: 100–120 / 220–240 V AC
Power supply frequency: 50/60 Hz
In an Emergency
Warning
•
If the printer emits smoke or strange odors, continuing to
use the printer may cause a fire or electrical shock.
