Do not unplug or replug the machine while it is
on. Unplugging a live connector can deform the
plug and cause a fire.
When unplugging the machine, grasp the plug
instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on a cord
can damage it and cause fire or electric shocks.
Be sure to switch off and unplug the machine
before accessing the interior of the machine for
cleaning, maintenance, or fault clearance.
Access to a live machine's interior can cause
electric shocks.
When the machine is not used over an extended
period of time, switch it off and unplug it. If an
unused machine is left connected to a power
source for a long period, degraded insulation
can cause electric shocks, current leakages, or
fire.
Once a month, unplug the machine and check
the power cord for the following:
●The power cord is plugged firmly into a
receptacle.
●The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or
bent.
●The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
●The cord is not cracked or frayed.
If you notice any unusual conditions, contact your
Xerox Customer Support Centre.
This machine has an earth fault interrupter.
Once a month, check the protection circuit for
correct operation using the following procedure.
If the circuit does not operate, an electric shock
can occur on a poorly earthed component. If you
notice any unusual conditions, contact your
Xerox Customer Support Centre.
Press the power switch to the " " position.
Press the test button below the breaker
switch with the tip of a ball pen. When the
breaker switch is turned from " " to "O",
the circuit is all OK.
Turn the breaker switch, then the power
switch to the " " position.
Do not attempt to rework, pull, bend, chafe, or
otherwise damage the power cord. Do not place
a heavy object on the cord. A damaged cord
can cause fire or electric shocks.
Never touch a power cord with wet hands.
Danger of electric shock exists.
Stop operation immediately if your machine
produces smoke, smell, excessive heat, or
unusual noise, or if water is spilt onto the
machine. These conditions can cause fire.
Immediately switch off and unplug the machine,
and contact your Xerox Customer Support
Centre.
If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are
exposed, ask your Xerox Customer Support
Centre for a replacement. Using a damaged
cord can cause fire or electric shocks.
To prevent fire or electric shocks, follow the
instructions below based on your machine
configuration. If in doubt, contact your Xerox
Customer Support Centre.
●If your machine is a 220-240 V model, there is
no need to attach a separate earth line as the
earth connection is incorporated in the power
line. Plug it into a properly rated outlet.
●If your machine is a 100 or 110 V model, use
the green earth wire bundled with the power
cord located at the rear of the machine. The
earth wire must be connected to one of the
following conductors:
●Earth terminal of the specified power outlet
●A piece of copper buried in the earth
650 mm or deeper
●Earth terminal with Class D* earthing
*Class D is the regulation for Japan only.
Never connect the earth wire to any of the
following:
●Gas pipe, which can be ignited and explode
●Telephone line earth wire or lightning rod,
which can draw an excessive electric current if
hit by lightning
●Water faucet or pipe whose electrical
conductivity is broken by a non-metal part
