snow.
•Contact your service representative if you need to lift the machine (such as
when relocating it to another floor). Do not attempt to lift the machine with-
out the assistance of your service representative. The machine will be dam-
aged if it topples or is dropped, resulting in malfunction and risk of injury to
users. The machine's various handling areas are for service engineer use
only. Do not touch these areas.
•Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine.

•For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the machine or expended
supply waste at household waste collection points. Disposal can take place
at an authorized dealer.

RCAUTION:
•Avoid getting toner on your clothes or skin when removing paper jam or re-
placing toner. If your skin comes into contact with toner, wash the affected
area thoroughly with soap and water.
•If toner gets on your clothing, wash with cold water. Hot water will set the
toner into the fabric and may make removing the stain impossible.
•Do not look into the lamp. It can damage your eyes.
•When loading paper, take care not to trap or injure your fingers.
•During operation, rollers for transporting the paper and originals revolve. A
safety device is being installed so that the machine can be operated safely.
But take care not to touch the machine during operation. An injury might occur.
•Fire and breakdown can result from heavy accumulation of dust inside this
machine. Consult your service representative for details about and charges
for cleaning the machine’s interior.
•There is a cutter blade inside the paper roll tray. When replacing or loading
the paper roll, or clearing paper jams, do not touch the parts a label indi-
cates. Otherwise an injury may result.
•When replacing or loading the paper roll, do not put the paper roll on the
upper of the paper roll tray. Otherwise the tray may fall and an injury may
result.
•Hold the paper roll horizontally with both hands. When you grab the paper
holder and hold the paper roll vertically, the paper roll may fall off and an
injury may result.
•When replacing or loading the paper, or clearing paper jams, pull out the cut
paper tray slowly with both hands. Do not pull out the cut paper tray with a
single hand. Otherwise the rear of the cut paper tray may fall and an injury
may result.
