18EnPower SupplyWARNING• Use only a power supply that meets thespecifi ed voltage requirements. Failure to doso may result in a fi re or electrical shock.• Do not use power cords other than the oneprovided, as this may result in a fire or electricalshock.• The provided power cord is intended for usewith this machine. Do not connect the powercord to other devices.• Do not modify, pull, forcibly bend, or performany other act that may damage the powercord. Do not place heavy objects on the powercord. Damaging the power cord may result ina fi re or electrical shock.• Do not plug in or unplug the power plug withwet hands, as this may result in an electricalshock.• Do not use extension cords or multi-plugpower strips with the machine. Doing so mayresult in a fi re or electrical shock.• Do not wrap the power cord or tie it in a knot,as this may result in a fi re or electrical shock.• Insert the power plug completely into the ACpower outlet. Failure to do so may result in afi re or electrical shock.• Remove the power plug completely from theAC power outlet during a thunder storm.Failure to do so may result in a fi re, electricalshock, or damage to the machine.• Make sure that the power supply for themachine is safe, and has a steady voltage.• Keep the power cord away from a heat source;failure to do this may cause the power cordcoating to melt, resulting in a fi re or electricalshock.• If excessive stress is applied to the connectionpart of the power cord, it may damage thepower cord or the wires inside the machinemay disconnect. This could result in a fire.Avoid the following situations:– Connecting and disconnecting the power cordfrequently.– Tripping over the power cord.– The power cord is bent near the connectionpart, and continuous stress is being applied tothe power outlet or the connection part.– Applying excessive force on the power plug.CAUTIONInstall this machine near the power outlet andleave sufficient space around the power plug sothat it can be unplugged easily in an emergency.IMPORTANTWhen connecting power• Do not connect the power cord to anuninterruptible power source. Doing so mayresult in malfunction of or damage to themachine at power failure.• If you plug this machine into an AC poweroutlet with multiple sockets, do not use theremaining sockets to connect other devices.• Do not connect the power cord to the auxiliaryAC power outlet on a computer.Other precautionsElectrical noise may cause this machine tomalfunction or lose data.HandlingWARNING• Immediately unplug the power plug from theAC power outlet and contact an authorizedCanon dealer if the machine makes an unusualnoise, emits an unusual smell, or emits smokeor excessive heat. Continued use may result ina fi re or electrical shock.• A location subject to temperature andhumidity extremes, whether low or high• A location subject to dramatic changes intemperature or humidity• A location near equipment that generatesmagnetic or electromagnetic waves• A laboratory or location where chemicalreactions occur• A location exposed to corrosive or toxic gases• A location that may warp from the weight ofthe machine or where the machine is liable tosink (a carpet, etc.)Avoid poorly ventilated locationsThis machine generates a slight amount of ozoneand other emissions during normal use. Theseemissions are not harmful to health. However,they may be noticeable during extended use orlong production runs in poorly ventilated rooms.To maintain a comfortable working environment,it is recommended that the room where themachine operates be appropriately ventilated.Also avoid locations where people would beexposed to emissions from the machine.Do not install in a location wherecondensation occursWater droplets (condensation) may form insidethe machine when the room where the machineis installed is heated rapidly, and when themachine is moved from a cool or dry location toa hot or humid location. Using the machineunder these conditions may result in paper jams,poor print quality, or damage to the machine.Let the machine adjust to the ambienttemperature and humidity for at least 2 hoursbefore use.In altitudes of above sea level 3,000 m or higherMachines with a hard disk may not operateproperly when used at high altitudes of about3,000 meters above sea level, or higher.Leveling feet (only for products with levelingfeet)Do not remove the machine’s leveling feet afterthe machine has been installed, as this maycause the machine to fall or tip over, resulting inpersonal injury.Connecting the Telephone Line (Only forProducts with a Fax Function)This machine conforms to a analog telephoneline standard. The machine can be connected tothe public switched telephone network (PSTN)only. If you connect the machine to a digitaltelephone line or a dedicated telephone line, itmight impede proper operation of the machineand could be the cause of damage. Make sure toconfirm a type of telephone line beforeconnecting the machine. Contact your opticalfiber line or IP telephone line service providers ifyou want to connect the machine to thosetelephone lines.When using wireless LAN (only for productswith a wireless LAN function)• Install the machine at a distance of 50 metersor less from the wireless LAN router.• As far as possible, install in a location wherecommunication is not blocked by interveningobjects. The signal may be degraded whenpassing through walls or fl oors.• Keep the machine as far as possible fromdigital cordless phones, microwave ovens, orother equipment that emits radio waves.• Do not use near medical equipment. Radiowaves emitted from this machine mayinterfere with medical equipment, which mayresult in malfunctions and accidents.Important SafetyInstructionsThis chapter describes important safetyinstructions for the prevention of injury to users ofthis machine and others, and damage to property.Read this chapter before using the machine, andfollow the instructions to use the machine properly.Do not perform any operations not described inthis manual.
