General precautions
• To avoid serious injury, never disassemble the machine. Exposed power points
inside the machine can cause electrical shock if you touch them.
• Never turn off the power switch (or disconnect the plug) or remove the
paper cassette during printing. Either can cause the fax machine to jam.
• During thunderstorms, disconnect the machine’s plug from the
AC
power
outlet (remember the instruction above: if the machine is printing, wait until the
printing ends). Your fax can hold documents in the standard memory
configuration for up to 100* hours.
* The machine’s backup battery must have been charged for at least 24 hours.
• Before you attach or remove the
AC
power cord from the power outlet, make
sure that your hands are dry.
• To avoid paper jams, do not load wrinkled or curled paper in the machine.
(This refers to both original documents and paper for printing.)
• Keep liquids and other cleaners away from your machine unless you’re
actually cleaning it as described in “Just in case” (see page 3.1
ff.
).
• When you lift the machine, always hold and lift by the slot at right and left sides
as shown in the illustration.
Important:
Never grip and lift the machine by the panel or other parts;
damage could result.
Note:
As shown, it’s best if two people carry the fax machine.
