are not followed, could result in death or serious injury.
R
CAUTION:
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if instructions are not
followed, may result in minor or moderate injury or damage to property.
•Keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and aerosols.
A fire or an electric shock might occur.
•Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an elec-
tric shock might occur.
•Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over,
an injury might occur.
•Make sure the room where you are using the machine is well ventilated and
spacious. Good ventilation is especially important when the machine is used
heavily.

Handling power cords and power plugs
This section explains safety precautions about handling power cords and power
plugs.
RWARNING:
RCAUTION:
•Disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if the
power cable or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged.
•Power cords that are damaged, broken, modified, trapped under heavy
objects, pulled hard, or bent severely are electric shock and fire haz-
ards.
•Connect the machine to the power source specified in “Specifica-
tions” and do not use any other power sources. Connect the power
cord directly to a wall outlet and do not use an extension cord. Power
sources not specified in “Specifications” and extension cords are
electric shock or fire hazards.
•If the power cord is damaged (exposure of the core, disconnection,
etc.), contact your service representative to change a new one. Oper-
ating the machine with a damaged power cord may cause an electric
shock or fire.
•When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the
plug (not the cable).
•To disconnect the power cord, pull it out by plug. Do not drag the cord itself.
Doing so may result in damage to the cord, leading to fire or electric shock.
•Make sure the plug is inserted firmly in the wall outlet.
•The wall outlet shall be installed near the machine and shall be easily ac-
cessible.

Handling the main machine
This section explains safety precautions about handling the main machine.
RWARNING:
RCAUTION:
•Turn off the power and disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug,
not the cable) if any of the following occurs:
•You spill something into the machine.
•You suspect that your machine needs service or repair.
•The external housing of your machine has been damaged.
•Do not turn the earth leakage circuit breaker from the off to the on po-
sition. Otherwise it might lead to an electric shock, fire or smoke, or
cause the circuit breakers to trip.
•Protect the machine from dampness or wet weather, such as rain and 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 without
the assistance of your service representative. The machine will be damaged
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.
While moving the machine, you should take care that the power cord will not
be damaged under the machine.
•Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside
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.
