Improper installation may damage the copier. Please note the following
during initial installation and whenever the copier is moved.
Note: If the copier is moved from a cool place to a warm place, con-

densation may form inside the copier. Operation in this condition
will cause poor copy quality and malfunctions. Leave the copier
at room temperature for at least 2 hours before use.

● damp, humid, or very dusty

● exposed to direct sunlight

● poorly ventilated

● subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, e.g., near

an air conditioner or heater.

vicing and proper ventilation.

in a dark place without removing from the package before use.
If they are exposed to direct sunlight, smudges on copies may
result.
