WARNING
You may cause an electric shock/fire or damage the machine if you ignore any of
these safety precautions.
zLocation
• Do not place the machine close to flammable solvents such as alcohol or thinners.
zPower supply
• Never attempt to plug or unplug the machine from the power supply when your hands
are wet.
• Always push the plug all the way into the power outlet.
• Never damage, modify, stretch or excessively bend or twist the power cord. Do not
place heavy objects on the power cord.
• Never plug the machine into a power socket that is shared with other equipment
(extension lead/cord, 2- or 3-way adapter, etc.).
• Never use the machine if the power cord is bundled or knotted.
• If you detect smoke, unusual smells or strange noises around the machine, immediately
unplug the machine at the power supply and contact your local authorized Canon dealer
or the Canon help line.
Using the machine in such conditions may result in fire or electrical shock.
• Periodically, unplug the machine and use a dry cloth to wipe off any dust or dirt
collected on the plug and the power outlet.
If the machine is placed at a location exposed to a lot of dust, smoke, or high humidity,
the dust collected on the plug absorbs moisture and may cause insulation failure and
fire.

zMaintenance
• Use a damp cloth to clean the machine. Never use flammable solvents such as alcohol,
benzene or thinners. If flammable solvents come in contact with electrical components
inside the machine, it could cause a fire or electrical shock.
• Always turn OFF the power and unplug the machine from the power outlet before
cleaning the machine. If you accidentally switch the machine ON while cleaning it, it
may result in injury or damage the machine.
zHandling
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the machine. There are no user serviceable
parts inside the machine.
The machine contains high-voltage components. Never attempt any maintenance
procedure not described in this guide. Incorrect maintenance procedures may damage
the machine, or cause a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not use flammable sprays near the machine.
This could cause a fire or electrical shock if the spray comes into contact with electrical
components inside the machine.
zOthers
• This product emits low level magnetic flux. If you use a cardiac pacemaker and feel
abnormalities, please move away from this product and consult your doctor.
• When setting the machine near electric products with fluorescent lighting, separate the
machine at least 5 7/8 inches (150 mm) from electric products equipped with
fluorescent lighting. If you place it near to them, the machine may malfunction as a
result of the noise emitted by the fluorescent lighting.
• When turning OFF the power, be sure to press [ON/OFF] and confirm that the Alarm
Lamp has shut off. If you pull the power plug out of the wall outlet while the Alarm
Lamp is lit or flashing, the print head is not protected, and you may not be able to print
