xiii What Can I Do with This Machine? Preface Thank you for choosing a Canon product. Before using the machine, please read the following instructions for your safety. Important Safety Instructions WA R N I N G Except as specifically described in this guide, do not attempt to service the machine yourself. Never attempt to disassemble the machine: opening and removing its interior covers will expose you to dangerous voltages and other risks. For all service, contact Canon Customer Care Center, or a Canon Authorized Service Facility. Handling and Maintenance – Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the machine. – Do not subject the machine to strong physical shocks or vibrations. – Always unplug the machine before moving or cleaning it. – To avoid paper jams, never unplug the power cord, open the left cover, or add or remove paper in the machine while printing. – When transporting the machine, be sure to remove the toner cartridge from the machine. – Place the toner cartridge in its original protective bag or wrap it in a thick cloth to prevent exposure to light. – Always grip the handle on the sides of the machine when you lift the machine. Never lift the machine by any of its trays or attachments. – Do not insert any objects into the slots or openings on the machine since they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts. This could result in fire or electric shock. – Do not allow small objects (such as pins, paper clips, or staples) to fall into the machine. – To avoid spillage in or around the machine, do not eat or drink near it. – Keep the machine clean. Dust accumulation can prevent the machine from operating properly.
xiv What Can I Do with This Machine? – Unplug the machine from the wall outlet and contact Canon Customer Care Center in any of the following cases: – When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. – If liquid or small object has fallen into the machine. – If the machine has been exposed to rain or water. – If the machine does not operate normally when you have followed the instructions in this guide. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the instructions in this guide. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and may require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation. – If the machine has been dropped. – If the machine exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for servicing. Location – Place the machine on a flat, stable, vibration-free surface that is strong enough to support its weight. – Place the machine in a cool, dry, clean, well ventilated place. – Make sure the area is free from dust. – Make sure the location is not exposed to high temperature or humidity. – Keep the machine away from direct sunlight as this can damage it. If you have to place the machine near a window, install heavy curtains or blinds. – Do not use the machine near water. Make sure that no wet or humid objects come into contact with the machine. – Do not use or store the machine outdoors. – Do not place the machine near devices that contain magnets or generate magnetic fields, such as speakers. – If possible, place the machine near an existing telephone line outlet for easy connection of the telephone line cord, and to avoid the expense of installing a new outlet. – Place the machine near a standard 120 V AC (60 Hz) power outlet.
xv What Can I Do with This Machine? – To ensure reliable operation of the machine and to protect it from overheating (which can cause it to operate abnormally and create a fire risk), do not block the exhaust vent.

Do not place the machine in a cupboard or built-in installation, or near a radiator or other heat source unless proper ventilation is provided. Leave enough space around all sides of the machine. – Do not stack boxes or furniture around the power outlet. Keep the area free so you can reach the outlet quickly. If you notice anything unusual (smoke, strange odors, noises) around the machine, unplug the power cord immediately. Contact Canon Customer Care Center. – Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not place the machine where the cord will be walked on. Make sure the cord is not knotted or kinked. Power Supply – During electrical storms, unplug the power cord from the power outlet. (Please note that any documents stored in the machine’s memory will be deleted when you unplug the power cord.) – Whenever you unplug the power cord, wait at least five seconds before you plug it in again. – Do not plug the power cord into an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
