Points to keep in mind when setting up
Do not place the machine in
direct sunlight.
Do not place the machine near
heaters or air conditioners.
Keep dust away from the
machine.
Keep the area around the
machine clear.
About condensation
If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that
condensation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper
scanning of documents for transmission. To remove the condensation,
turn on the power and wait approximately two hours before using the
machine.
Connections

<P=002>
Handset
Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest.
♦The ends of the handset lead are identical, so they will go into
either socket.
Make sure the
handset cord goes
into the socket
marked with a
handset symbol on
the side of the
machine!
Use the handset to
make ordinary phone
calls, or to transmit
and receive
documents manually.

Power lead
Plug the power lead into a 220-240 V, 50-60 Hz, earthed (3-prong) AC
outlet.
Caution!
Do not plug the power lead into any other kind of outlet. This will
damage the machine and is not covered under the warranty.
The machine does not
have a power on/off switch,
so the power is turned on
and off by simply plugging
or unplugging the power
lead.
Note: If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power
surges, we recommend that you install surge protectors for the power and
telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased at most telephone
specialty stores.
Connections

<P=004>
Telephone line cord
Insert one end of the line cord into the socket on the back of the
machine marked TEL. LINE. Insert the other end into a wall
telephone socket.
Be sure to insert the
telephone line cord into
the TEL. LINE socket.
Do not insert it into the
TEL. SET socket.

Loading the Imaging Film
Your fax uses a roll of imaging film to create printed text and images.
The print head in the fax applies heat to the imaging film to transfer
ink to the paper. Follow the steps below to load or replace the film.
The initial starter roll
of imaging film
included with your
fax can print about
30 A4 pages.
When replacing the
film, use a roll of Sharp
FO-3CR imaging film.
One roll can print about
95 A4 pages.
Note: If there is paper in the paper tray, pull the paper release plate
forward and remove the paper before loading the imaging film.
1Open the operation panel by grasping the finger hold and pulling up.
2Pull the green release on the right side of the machine forward, and
