The product may fall, causing serious damage to the product. 6 Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation; to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered.

This product should never be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided. 7 This product should be operated from the type of power source indicated on the label.

Never spill liquid of any kind on the product. 12 This product does not have an ON/OFF switch. Therefore, it is very important that you have easy access to the main plug and the main socket to which the plug is connected, in case the main power to the FAX/MFC must be disconnected quickly. 12 - 5 I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.

Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or

aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may

fall, causing serious damage to the product.

Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for

ventilation; to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from

overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings

should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other

similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or

heater. This product should never be placed in a built-in installation unless

proper ventilation is provided.

This product should be operated from the type of power source indicated on the

label. If you are not sure of the type of power available, consult your dealer or

local power company.

This product is equipped with a 3-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a

third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit into only a grounding-type power outlet.

This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact

your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the

grounding-type plug by using an adapter.

Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not place this product where

people can walk on the cord.

If an extension cord is used with this product, make sure that the total ampere

ratings on the products plugged into the extension cord do not exceed the

extension cord ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total of all products

plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes (USA only).

Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots, since they

may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts resulting in the risk of fire

or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

This product does not have an ON/OFF switch. Therefore, it is very important

that you have easy access to the main plug and the main socket to which the plug

is connected, in case the main power to the FAX/MFC must be disconnected

quickly.
