Handling
WARNING
• Immediately unplug the power plug from the AC power outlet and
contact an authorized Canon dealer if the machine makes an unusual
noise, emits an unusual smell, or emits smoke or excessive heat.
Continued use may result in a fi re or electrical shock.
• Do not disassemble or modify this machine. There are high-voltage
and high-temperature components inside the machine which may
result in a fi re or electrical shock.
• Place the machine where children will not come in contact with the
power cord and other cables or internal and electrical parts. Failure to
do so may result in unexpected accidents.
• Do not use fl ammable sprays near this machine. If fl ammable
substances come into contact with electrical parts inside this
machine, it may result in a fi re or electrical shock.
• When plugging or unplugging a USB cable when the power plug is
plugged into an AC power outlet, do not touch the metal part of the
connector, as this may result in an electrical shock.
• If you are using a cardiac pacemaker:
This machine generates a low level magnetic fl ux. If you use a cardiac
pacemaker and feel abnormalities, please move away from this
machine and consult your physician immediately.

Maintenance and Inspections
WARNING
• Before cleaning, turn OFF the power and unplug the power plug from
the AC power outlet. Failure to do so may result in a fi re or electrical
shock.
• Unplug the power plug periodically and clean with a dry cloth to
remove dust and grime. Accumulated dust may absorb humidity in
the air and may result in a fi re if it comes into contact with electricity.
• Use a damp, well wrung-out cloth to clean the machine. Dampen
cleaning cloths with water only. Do not use alcohol, benzenes, paint
thinners, or other fl ammable substances. Do not use tissue paper or
paper towels. If these substances come into contact with electrical
parts inside the machine, they may generate static electricity or result
in a fi re or electrical shock.
• Check the power cord and plug periodically for damage. Check the
machine for rust, dents, scratches, cracks, or excessive heat
generation. Use of poorly-maintained equipment may result in a fi re
or electrical shock.
Consumables
WARNING
• Do not dispose of used toner cartridges and drum units in open
fl ames. Also, do not store toner cartridges, drum units, or paper in a
location exposed to open fl ames. This may cause the toner to ignite,
and result in burns or fi re.
• If you accidentally spill or scatter toner, carefully wipe up the loose
toner with a damp, soft cloth and avoid inhaling any toner dust. Do
not use a vacuum cleaner that is not equipped with safety measures
to prevent dust explosions to clean up loose toner. Doing so may
cause damage to the vacuum cleaner or result in a dust explosion
due to static discharge.
CAUTION
• Use caution not to inhale any toner. If you should inhale toner,
consult a physician immediately.
• Use caution so that toner does not get into your eyes or mouth. If
toner should get into your eyes or mouth, immediately wash with
cold water and consult a physician.
• Use caution so that toner does not come into contact with your skin.
If it should, wash with soap and cold water. If there is any irritation on
your skin, consult a physician immediately.
• Keep the toner cartridges and other consumables out of the reach of
small children. If toner is ingested, consult a physician or poison
control center immediately.
• Do not disassemble or modify the toner cartridges. Doing so may
cause the toner to scatter.
• Remove the sealing tape of the toner cartridge completely without
using excessive force. Doing otherwise may cause the toner to scatter.
