Safety
Your fax machine has been carefully designed to give you years of safe,
reliable performance. As with all electrical equipment, however, there are
a few basic precautions you should take to avoid hurting yourself or
damaging the fax machine.
General
• Read this user's guide carefully and keep it in a safe but accessible
place so that you can use it for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the fax
machine itself.
• Disconnect the fax machine before you clean it. DO NOT use liquid
or aerosol cleaners to clean the fax machine.
• Place your fax machine on a firm, solid surface. If you place the fax
machine on something unsteady, it may fall and become damaged
or injure someone. If you place the fax machine on a soft surface,
such as a rug, sofa, or bed, the vents may become blocked causing
the fax machine to overheat.
• Do not use your fax machine near water, or spill liquid of any kind
into it.
Installation hints
• Install your fax machine in a dust-free location away from direct
sunlight.
• Do not connect your fax machine to a power source that is used by
other equipment producing electrical noise (i.e., air conditioners,
etc.).
• Leave electronic adjustments to authorized service personnel.
• The LINE terminal connects your fax machine to a standard
telephone line. To avoid damage to your telephone system or to the
fax machine, do not connect your fax machine into anything other
than a standard telephone socket.

2User’s Guide
• Your fax machine has an earthed, 3-pin plug as a safety feature and
it will only connect to an earthed outlet. If you cannot connect this
plug to your power outlet, then it is possible that you have an older,
non-earthed outlet. Contact an electrician to have your power outlet
replaced. Do not use an adapter to defeat the earthing.
• The electrical power outlet should be located near the fax machine
and should be easily accessible.
• The TEL ports on the back of the fax machine are only suitable for
2 wire devices. Not all standard telephones will respond to
incoming ringing when connected to an extension socket.
• This fax machine may not necessarily provide an effective hand-
over of a call from a telephone connected to the same line.
• The operation of this fax machine on the same line as a telephone or
other equipment with audible warning devices or automatic ring
detectors will rise to bell tinkle or noise and may cause false
tripping of the ring detector. Should such problems occur, the user
is not to contact the telephone company.
• Please note that this fax machine does comply with Machine Noise
Information Ordinance 3. GSGV 18.1.1991 where the maximum
sound pressure level is equal or less than 70 dB (A) according to
ISO 7779.
Operation & maintenance
• Use a dry cloth to clean the control panel and the main body of the
unit.
• Aside from the instructions specifically mentioned in this user’s
guide, your fax machine is not user serviceable. DO NOT attempt to
service the machine or lubricate moving parts by yourself.
• Disconnect the power cable before trying to remove any objects that
may have fallen into the machine.
• Immediately disconnect the fax machine if it becomes physically
damaged and arrange for its repair or disposal.
• When relocating your fax machine, always disconnect the
telephone line before disconnecting the power cable. When
reconnecting your fax machine, connect the power cable first, then
the telephone line.
• This fax machine is designed for use with tone dial telephones and
has a parrallel pick-up feature with remote receive.

Safety 3
English
Toner cartridge & image drum handling
• Leave unused toner cartridges and image drum units in their
packages until needed. When replacing a toner cartridge or image
unit, reuse the packaging to dispose of the old toner cartridge or
image drum unit.
• Do not expose the toner cartridges and image drum units to light for
more than five minutes. Never expose the green drum (inside the
image drum unit) to direct sunlight.
• Always hold the image drum unit by the ends - never by the middle.
Never touch the green drum inside the image drum unit.
• To avoid damage to the image drum unit, always use original toner
cartridges.
• Exercise care when removing the toner cartridge. Do not let it touch
your clothing or porous materials. The toner powder causes
permanent stains.
• Small amounts of toner spilled on skin or clothing can be readily
removed with soap and cold water. Using heated water will make
removing the stain much more difficult.
Emergency first aid
•IF TONER IS SWALLOWED: Induce vomiting and seek medical
attention. Never attempt to induce vomiting or give anything by
mouth to a person who is unconscious.
•IF TONER IS INHALED: Take the person to an open area for
fresh air. Seek medical attention.
•IF TONER GETS IN THE EYES: Flush eyes with large
quantities of cool, NOT cold, water for a minimum of 15 minutes
keeping eyelids open with fingers. Seek medical attention.
