[4] Installation
1. Site selection
Takethefollowing points into considerationwhenselectinga site forthis
model.
ENVIRONMENT
•The machine must be installed on a level surface.
•Keep the machine away from air conditioners, heaters, direct sun-
light, and dust.
•Provide easy access to the front, back, and sides of the machine. In
particular, keep the area in front of the machine clear, or the original
document may jam as it comes out after scanning.
•The temperature should be between 41 - 95°F(5 - 35°C).
•The humidity should be between 25% and 85% (without conden-
sation).
ELECTRICITY
AC 120V, 60Hz, grounded(3-prong) AC outlet is required.
Caution!
•Connection to a power source other than that specified will cause
damage to the equipment and is not covered under the warranty.
•Ifyourareaexperiencesahighincidenceoflightningorpower surges,
we recommend that you install a surge protector for the power and
telephonelines.Surgeprotectorscanbepurchasedatmosttelephone
speciality stores.
If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place...
Condensation may form on the reading glass if machine is moved from
a cold to a warm place, this will prevent proper scanning of documents
for transmission. Turn on the power and wait approximately 2 hours be-
fore using machine.
TELEPHONE JACK
A standard RJ11C single-line wall telephone jack must be located near
the machine. This is the telephone jack commonly used in most homes
and offices.
•Plugging the fax machine into a jack which is not RJ11C single-line
wall telephone jack may result in damage to the machine or your
telephone system. If you do not know what kind of jack you have, or
need to have one installed, contact the telephone company.
2. Assembly and connections

without doing so may damage the machine.
• 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 telephonelines. Surge protectors can be purchased
