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.
1. Installation
Connections

Handset
Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest.
♦The ends of the handset cord are identical, so they will go into
either jack.
Make sure the
handset cord goes
into the jack 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.
Connections
12

Power cord
Plug the power cord into a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded (3-prong) AC
outlet.
Caution!
Do not plug the power cord 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
in or unplugging the power
cord.
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.

the TEL. LINE jack.
Do not insert it into the
TEL. SET jack!
