fi re or electrical shock
•
A location where the ventilation slots are
blocked (too close to walls, beds, sofas, rugs, or
similar objects)
•
A damp or dusty location
•
A location exposed to direct sunlight or outdoors
•
A location subject to high temperatures
En
A location exposed to open flames
•
•
Near alcohol, paint thinners or other
flammable substances
Other warnings
•
Do not connect unapproved cables to this
machine. Doing so may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
Do not place necklaces and other metal
•
objects or containers filled with liquid on the
machine. If foreign substances come in contact
with electrical parts inside the machine, it may
result in a fire or electrical shock.
•
If any foreign substance falls into this machine,
unplug the power plug from the AC power outlet
and contact your local authorized Canon dealer.
Do not install in the following locations
The machine may drop or fall, resulting in injury.
•
An unstable location
•
A location exposed to vibrations
CAUTION
Do not install in the following locations
Doing so may result in damage to the
machine.
16
A location subject to temperature and
•
humidity extremes, whether low or high
•
A location subject to dramatic changes in
temperature or humidity
A location near equipment that generates
•
magnetic or electromagnetic waves
•
A laboratory or location where chemical
reactions occur
•
A location exposed to corrosive or toxic gases
•
A location that may warp from the weight of
the machine or where the machine is liable to
sink (a carpet, etc.)
Avoid poorly ventilated locations
This machine generates a slight amount of ozone
and other emissions during normal use. These
emissions are not harmful to health. However,
they may be noticeable during extended use or
long production runs in poorly ventilated rooms.
To maintain a comfortable working environment,
it is recommended that the room where the
machine operates be appropriately ventilated.
Also avoid locations where people would be
exposed to emissions from the machine.
Do not install in a location where
condensation occurs
Water droplets (condensation) may form inside
the machine when the room where the machine
is installed is heated rapidly, and when the
machine is moved from a cool or dry location to
a hot or humid location. Using the machine
under these conditions may result in paper jams,
poor print quality, or damage to the machine.
Let the machine adjust to the ambient
temperature and humidity for at least 2 hours
before use.
In altitudes of above sea level 3,000 m or higher
Machines with a hard disk may not operate
properly when used at high altitudes of about
3,000 meters above sea level, or higher.
Leveling feet (only for products with leveling
feet)
Do not remove the machine's leveling feet after
the machine has been installed, as this may
cause the machine to fall or tip over, resulting in
personal injury.
Connecting the Telephone Line (Only for
Products with a Fax Function)
This machine conforms to a analog telephone
line standard. The machine can be connected to
the public switched telephone network (PSTN)
only. If you connect the machine to a digital
telephone line or a dedicated telephone line, it
might impede proper operation of the machine
and could be the cause of damage. Make sure to
confirm a type of telephone line before
connecting the machine. Contact your optical
fiber line or IP telephone line service providers if
you want to connect the machine to those
telephone lines.
When using wireless LAN (only for products
with a wireless LAN function)
•
Install the machine at a distance of 50 meters
or less from the wireless LAN router.
As far as possible, install in a location where
•
communication is not blocked by intervening
objects. The signal may be degraded when
passing through walls or floors.
Keep the machine as far as possible from
•
digital cordless phones, microwave ovens, or
other equipment that emits radio waves.
Do not use near medical equipment. Radio
•
waves emitted from this machine may
interfere with medical equipment, which may
result in malfunctions and accidents.
Power Supply
WARNING
Use only a power supply that meets the
•
specified voltage requirements. Failure to do
so may result in a fire or electrical shock.
•
The machine must be connected to a
socket-outlet with grounding connection by
the provided power cord.
Do not use power cords other than the one
•
provided, as this may result in a fire or electrical
shock.
The provided power cord is intended for use
•
with this machine. Do not connect the power
cord to other devices.
•
Do not modify, pull, forcibly bend, or perform
any other act that may damage the power
cord. Do not place heavy objects on the power
cord. Damaging the power cord may result in
a fire or electrical shock.
Do not plug in or unplug the power plug with
•
wet hands, as this may result in an electrical
shock.
Do not use extension cords or multi-plug
•
power strips with the machine. Doing so may
result in a fire or electrical shock.
•
Do not wrap the power cord or tie it in a knot,
as this may result in a fire or electrical shock.
•
Insert the power plug completely into the AC
power outlet. Failure to do so may result in a
fire or electrical shock.
Remove the power plug completely from the
•
AC power outlet during a thunder storm.
Failure to do so may result in a fire, electrical
shock, or damage to the machine.
Make sure that the power supply for the
•
machine is safe, and has a steady voltage.
•
Keep the power cord away from a heat source;
failure to do this may cause the power cord
coating to melt, resulting in a fire or electrical
shock.
•
If excessive stress is applied to the connection
part of the power cord, it may damage the
power cord or the wires inside the machine
may disconnect. This could result in a fire.
Avoid the following situations:
– Connecting and disconnecting the power cord
frequently.
– Tripping over the power cord.
– The power cord is bent near the connection
part, and continuous stress is being applied to
the power outlet or the connection part.
– Applying excessive force on the power plug.
CAUTION
Install this machine near the power outlet and
leave sufficient space around the power plug so
that it can be unplugged easily in an emergency.
IMPORTANT
When connecting power
Do not connect the power cord to an
•
uninterruptible power source. Doing so may
result in malfunction of or damage to the
machine at power failure.
If you plug this machine into an AC power
•
outlet with multiple sockets, do not use the
remaining sockets to connect other devices.
Do not connect the power cord to the auxiliary
•
AC power outlet on a computer.
Other precautions
Electrical noise may cause this machine to
malfunction or lose data.
Handling
WARNING
Immediately unplug the power plug from the
•
AC power outlet and contact an authorized
Canon dealer if the machine makes an unusual
