Copier installation
COPIER INSTALLATION
Improper installation may damage the copier. Please note the following
during initial installation and whenever the copier is moved.
If the copier is moved from a cool place to a warm place, condensation may form inside the
copier. Operation in this condition will cause poor copy quality and malfunctions. Leave the
copier at room temperature for at least 2 hours before use.
Do not install your copier in areas that are:
●damp, humid, or very dusty
●exposed to direct sunlight
●poorly ventilated
●subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, e.g., near an
air conditioner or heater.
The copier should be installed near an accessible power outlet
for easy connection.
Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that
meets the specified voltage and current requirements.
Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded.
Connect the copier to a power outlet which is not used
for other electric appliances. If a lighting fixture is
connected to the same outlet, the light may flicker.
Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for
servicing and proper ventilation.
Asmall amountofozoneis producedwithinthecopier duringoperation.Theemissionlevelis insufficient
to cause any health hazard.
NOTE:
Thepresentrecommendedlongtermexposurelimitforozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m3) calculated as an
8 hr. time-weighted average concentration.
However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to
place the copier in a ventilated area.
