Precautions WARNING: Electrical shock hazard. Do not try to take apart or repair this equipment yourself. Service should be performed by authorized Brother service personnel only. In case of malfunction, overheating, or other problems, immediately disconnect the electrical plug to reduce the risk of fire. Contact you nearest authorized Brother Service Center. CAUTION: I. • Do not pull on the power cord or the signal cable. To disconnect it, always grasp the plug itself. • Avoid direct exposure of the equipment to sunlight and other sources of heat, excessive moisture or dust. • If you spill any liquid onto the equipment, immediately unplug the system and consult your Brother Service Center. • Do not use sprays in the vicinity of the Whisperwriter. Aerosols are extremely harmful to the disk drive. • Unplug the equipment during a thunderstorm. • Do not place heavy objects on the keyboard. • Keep the back and sides clear of obstructions to prevent overheating. • Use only a soft, dry cloth to clean the equipment (do not use chemicals, solvents or detergents). • To avoid electrical interference, do not place the Whisperwriter close to a radio receiver or television. If the Whisperwriter is close to a television set, the disk drive may not work properly. For the same reason, avoid placing the monitor too close to the Whisperwriter. • If you switch the Whisperwriter off, wait at least 10 seconds before switching it on again. Failure to wait 10 seconds may disrupt the start-up sequence, resulting in faulty operation and possible hardware damage. • Do not turn the Whisperwriter off while printing. • Check under the top cover that the ink-jet cartridge (under the top cover) has moved back to its right-most position before you turn the power off. If you notice that the cartridge has not moved to its right-most position, turn the power on again. The cartridge should now be correctly positioned and you can turn the power off. • Never try to manually move the ink-jet cartridge from side to side. Getting Started 4
