III Safety Information
LASER SAFETY
This FAX contains a page printer which operates by means of a laser. There is no
possibility of danger from the laser, provided the FAX is operated according to the
instructions in this manual provided.
Since radiation emitted by the laser is completely confined within protective housing, the
laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.
INTERNAL LASER RADIATION (for all Uers)
Maximum Radiation power: 7.3x10 (W) Wave Length: 770-810 (nm)
This is a Class lllb Laser Diode Assy. That has an invisible laser beam. The printer head
unit is NOT A FIELD SERVICE ITEM. Therefore the printer head unit should not be
opened under any circumstances.
For United States Users
Laser Safety
This FAX is certified as a Class 1 Laser product under the U.S. Department of Health
Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the Food, Drug and
Cosmetic Act of 1990. This means that the FAX does not produce hazardous radiation.
CDRH Regulations
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration implemented regulations for laser products on August 2, 1976.
Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States. The label shown
below indicates compliance with the CDRH regulations and must be attached to laser
productd marketed in the United States.
WARNING:
Use of controls, adjustment or performance of procedures other than
those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.

Important Safeguards
Introduction 1 - 2
Important Safeguards
Always follow these important safeguards:
1Read all of these instructions before using your unit.
2Do not use this unit near water; for example, near a bath tub, sink or swim-
ming pool.
3Avoid using the telephone during an electrical storm. There may be a
remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
4Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of this unit.
5Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual. Do not dis-
pose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instruction.
6Plug the power cord only into a
3- conductor (grounded) outlet rated for
at least 15 amperes.
•Never ground the power cord to a
gas pipe or a water pipe.
•Keep the power cord away from hot
surfaces.
•Avoid using an extension cord if at all
possible. If you must use an
extension cord, use only a
3-conductor cord rated for at least 15
amperes. Cords rated for less might overheat and become a fire hazard.
•Do not operate your unit if any part of it is damaged, or if any part has
been dropped, until it is checked by a qualified technician.
7Do not install your unit in areas that are:
•Damp or humid
•Exposed to direct sunlight
•Extremely dusty
•Poorly ventilated
•Subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes. For example, do
not locate your unit near an air conditioner or heater.
8Install your unit with space around it to provide adequate ventilation.

Important Safeguards
1 - 3 Introduction
9Do not place the unit near a television or radio. If the unit is too close it
may interfere with the reception.
10 Place your unit on a firm, level surface.
11 Do not place heavy objects on the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) or
the Exit Tray.
12 Do not disassemble your unit or try to repair it yourself, other than as
instructed in this Operator Guide. Call an authorized service representative
for all necessary repairs. Incorrect assembly can cause electrical hazards
and possible damage to the machine.
