WARNING
Choose a location where the temperature remains between 10°C and 32°C, the humidity is
between 20% to 80%, and where there is no condensation. To ensure the high print quality, the
maximum ambient temperature we recommend is 32°C. The maximum ambient temperature to
safely use this machine is 35°C.
DO NOT expose the product to direct sunlight, excessive heat, open flames, corrosive gasses,
moisture or dust. Doing so may create a risk of an electrical shock, short circuit or fire. It may
also damage the product and/or render it inoperable.
DO NOT place the product near heaters, air conditioners, electrical fans, refrigerators, or water.
Doing so may create the risk of an electrical shock, short circuit or fire, as water may come into
contact with the product (including condensation caused by heating/air conditioning/ventilation
equipment).
DO NOT place the product near chemicals or in a place where chemical spillage could occur. In
particular, organic solvents or liquids may cause the casing and/or cables to melt or dissolve,
risking fire or electric shock. They may also cause the product to malfunction or become
discoloured.

fall, causing injury to you and serious damage to the product. For MFC and DCP products, there
is an added risk of injury if the scanner glass should break. Particularly, if you have children,
please make sure the product is located in a safe position.
Put your product on a flat, level, stable surface free from vibration and shocks, such as a desk.
