Thank you for deciding in favour of purchasing the innovative franking system Frama F4 or Frama Matrix F6.
The following information in this operating guide is intended as support when you install and operate your Frama

this guide before you put your franking system into service.
Safety precautions / accident prevention
1.
Read the operating guide completely and adhere to the instructions in it.
2.
Before starting the franking machine the first time, it must be properly registered with the post office. When
doing so, keep to the instructions given by your local Frama sales organization.
3.
Each franking mark may be used only once. The Post Office regards repeated use as a punishable offence
and a violation of the general terms and conditions of business.
4.
Test franking marks or sample franking impressions are not regarded as valid by the Post Office and items
bearing them may not, therefore, be mailed.
5.
Inkjet cassettes and similar printing consumables must be regularly renewed and / or serviced to ensure
high-quality printing.
6.
The use of fibrous and other unsuitable envelopes can result in blurred or smeared marks and thus to
illegibility of the franking mark. In view of this, the use of envelopes of this kind cannot be agreed to.
7.
In buildings in which the franking system is plugged into the power supply network a current overload
protector must be fitted.
8.
Before installing the system, check the cable (supply cord) and plug. Have damage repaired only by a
elctrical specialist.
9.
Insert the plug into a mains socket only when the franking machine housing is closed.
10.
Always run the mains cable (power cord) away at the back of the franking machine and make sure that no
risk exists of it being damaged or someone tripping over it.
11.
Never pull the plug out of the socket by the mains cable (power cord).
12.
Never hold any foreign objects in the printing unit (risk of damage).
13.
Never put your hand into the printing unit. Your fingers could be injured if the franking machine is switched
on. Be careful if you are wearing long hair, a tie, etc.
14.
Please remove the inkjet cassette if you have to transport the franking system somewhere.
15.
Keep children away from the franking system.
16.
Have franking machine repairs carried out only by a serviceman from your local Frama sales organization.
Never open the franking system yourself under any circumstances.
17.
Always pull out the mains plug before opening the housing.
18.
Never put any hot objects (cigarettes, etc.) onto the housing. Make sure that no moisture can infiltrate into
the machine or the power supply unit.
19.
Avoid using aggressive cleaning agents or detergents when cleaning the franking system. Instead, use a
slightly damp cleaning cloth.
20.
Keep fingers and other parts of the body as well as ties, necklaces, bracelets, long hair and open sleeves
away from the feed entry section. There is a risk of injury from moving parts.
