READ THESE IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATIONS FIRST ...
The fax machine you have purchased is a high quality product
satisfying all
requirements.
For its best use you should follow the general recommendations
indicated hereafter.
LOCATION ...
•
Place the fax machine on a stable, flat surface with no
vibrations, in order to avoid it falling, thus causing injury to
people or damage to the product.
•
Keep the fax away from water or steam sources, exces-
sive heat sources and dusty rooms. Also, do not expose it
to direct sunlight.
•
Keep the fax away from other electrical or electronic appli-
ances which may generate interference, e.g. radio, televi-
sion, etc.
•
Do not surround the fax with books, documents or objects
which reduce the space necessary for air circulation. Ideal
environmental conditions for its location are from 5°C to
35°C with a humidity rate between 15% and 85%.
•
Leave enough room in front of the outlet slot for originals,
received or copied documents, so they will not fall onto
the floor.
CONNECTION TO THE ELECTRICAL POWER
SUPPLY ...
•
The fax machine is provided with a power cable with a
grounded plug. If your wall power socket does not allow
plug insertion or if it does not have a ground, get in touch
with a qualified electrician to update your electrical mains
outlet to the current standards.
•
Make sure that the power cable is easily accessible with-
out obstructing the passage, avoiding treading on, or trip-
ping over it.
•
Make sure that power voltage and frequency of the electri-
cal outlet correspond to the power voltage and frequency
values indicated on the rear plate of the fax machine.
•
Never connect the fax to a multiple plug or to an extension
cable to which another appliance is already connected:
poor electrical contact may cause overheating and origi-
nate fire or electrical shocks.
During storms we recommend you unplug the device from
both the power outlet and the telephone line so as to elimi-
nate all risk of damage.
CONNECTION TO THE TELEPHONE LINE ...
Since the connection of the fax machine, telephone, answering
machine and other devices to a telephone line is subject to
national standards, please refer to the current regulations in
your own country.
INSTALLATION AND SET-UP PARAMETERS ...
At national level, the settings and set-up parameters for each
installation may change according to the requirements or indi-
vidual user needs. Therefore, these settings and those indi-
cated in the manual may not always be the same: it is sug-
gested that you print them out before making any modifications.
MAINTENANCE ...
•
When cleaning the fax, first disconnect it from the electri-
cal power supply. Use only a dampened cloth. Do not use
corrosive substances, such as solvents, alcohol, petrol or
abrasive components.
•
Never introduce foreign bodies (liquids included) into the
fax machine: their accidental contact with powered parts
may cause a fire or electric shocks.
REPAIRS ...
•
Never try to repair the fax if you do not have the necessary
competence: by removing the outer casing, you may risk
electrical shocks or other injury. Always call a qualified
service technician.
•
When replacing components (accessories included), make
sure that you use only original material approved by the
manufacturer. Use of other material might compromise the
safety features, as well as causing fire and electrical shocks.
•
Disconnect the fax from the power supply and contact a
qualified service technician, if any of the following condi-
tions occur:
- the power cable, or its plug are damaged or worn
- the outer casing is damaged
- liquid has been poured inside by accident (rain included!)
FOR CORRECT USE ...
•
Before using your fax machine, read carefully the instruc-
tions contained in this manual. Keep the manual for further
consultation.
•
The fax machine has already been set for operation ac-
cording to the standards of the telephone network within
your country.
•
If you do not use the fax machine for long periods it should
be disconnected from the power supply to avoid damage
from power surges and peaks.
THE HANDSET...
•
In case of voltage drop or interruption in the power supply,
you can neither make nor receive telephone calls the keypad
is disabled.
•
However, if you absolutely need the fax machine to make
a call, you have to use an emergency phone, a type certi-
fied by the network manager, which you can connect di-
rectly to the fax machine.
CONSULTING THIS MANUAL ...
There are three different models described in this manual: the
basic model, the model with internal answering machine
and the multi-use model which can be connected to a PC and
allows the use of a colour print head (for this model, refer to the
documentation you find inside the packaging). Whenever it is
neccessary to differentiate between the models they will be
described as “model without answering machine”, model
with internal answering machine”, or “multi-use model”.
