Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated
connector can draw a significant amount of current that can generate heat and eventually
cause fire if left unattended over an extended period of time.

Always use the power cord provided with your machine. When an extension power cord is
required, always use a properly rated cord.

120 V/15 A or AC 220 - 240V/10 A

If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, the machine or plug may emit smoke or
become hot to the touch.

Do not attempt to repair, pull, bend, chafe or otherwise damage the power cord. Do not
place a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.

Never touch a power cord with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.

If the power cord is damaged or insulated wires are exposed, contact your Service Provider

for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks. 

Stop operation immediately if your machine emits smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise, or
abnormal smell, or if water is spilt onto the machine. These conditions can cause fire.
Immediately switch Off and unplug the machine, and contact  your Service Provider.

When disconnecting the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Pulling on a cord
forcibly can damage it and cause fire or electric shock.

When the machine is not used over an extended period of time, switch it Off and unplug it.
If an unused machine is left connected to a power source for a long period, degraded insulation
can cause electric shocks, current leakage or fire.

Be sure to switch Off and unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the machine
for cleaning, maintenance or fault clearance. Access to a live machine's   interior can cause
electric shock.

The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
The cord is not cracked or frayed.

Do not touch areas where these caution labels are attached to, the surface may be very hot and may cause
severe burns.

Do not place any liquid container such as a vase or coffee cup on the machine. Spilt water can cause fire or
shock hazard.

Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the machine. If metal and flammable parts get into the
machine, they can short-circuit internal components, and cause fire or electric shocks.

If debris (metal or liquid) gets into the machine, switch Off and unplug the machine immediately.
Operating a debris-contaminated machine can cause fire or electric shock.

Do not try to alter the machine configuration or modify any parts. An unauthorized modification can cause
smoke or fire.

Never dispose of toner, toner cartridge or a waste toner container into an open flame. Toner remaining in the
cartridge can cause an explosion, burns and/or injuries.

Keep button batteries/stamp out of the reach of children. If a button battery/stamp is swallowed accidentally,
get medical treatment immediately.

Do not place the machine near heaters or volatile, flammable, or combustible materials such as curtains that
may catch fire.

Do not place the machine in a hot, humid, dusty or poorly ventilated environment. Prolonged exposure to
these adverse conditions can cause fire or electric shocks.

Place the machine on a level and sturdy surface that can with stand.
If tilted, the machine may tip-over and cause injuries.

When moving the machine, be sure to unplug the power cord from the outlet. If the machine is moved with the
power cord attached, it can cause damage to the cord which could result in fire or electric shock.

Do not place a magnet near the safety switch of the machine. A magnet can activate the
machine accidentally resulting in injuries.

Do not use a highly flammable spray or solvent near the machine. It can cause fire.

When copying a thick document, do not use excessive force to press it against the
document glass. The glass may break and cause injuries.

Never touch a labeled area found on or near the heat roller. You can get burnt. If a sheet
of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, do not try to remove it when it is hot, to avoid
injuries or burns. Switch Off the machine immediately, and wait until it cools down.

Do not use conductive paper, e.g. folding paper, carbonic paper and coated paper. When
a paper jam occurs, they can cause a short circuit and fire.

Do not place any heavy object on the machine. An off-balance machine can tip-over or
the heavy object can fall, causing damage and/or injuries.

Keep the room ventilated when using the machine for an extended period of time to
minimize the ozone density in the air.

When copying with the document cover open, do not look directly at the exposure lamp.
Direct eye exposure can cause eye fatigue or damage.

Pull out paper trays slowly to prevent injuries.

When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in the
machine. A piece of paper remaining in the machine can cause fire. If a sheet of paper is
wrapped around the heat roller, or when clearing a jammed paper that is difficult or
impossible to see, do not try to remove it by yourself. Doing so can cause injuries or
burns. Switch Off the machine immediately, and wait until it cools down.

Never throw a toner cartridge into an open flame. Toner remaining in the cartridge can
cause an explosion and you can get burnt.

Never throw toner or a waste toner container or a toner cartridge into an open flame. It
can cause an explosion and you can get burnt.

Keep button batteries out of the reach of children. If a button battery is swallowed
accidentally, get medical treatment immediately.
