make any electrical or cabling connections, such as the fax feature, power cord, or telephone, during a lightning
storm.
Refer service or repairs, other than those described in the user documentation, to a professional service person.
This product is designed, tested, and approved to meet strict global safety standards with the use of specific Lexmark
components. The safety features of some parts may not always be obvious. Lexmark is not responsible for the use of
other replacement parts.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: This product uses a laser. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
This product uses a printing process that heats the print media, and the heat may cause the media to release emissions.
You must understand the section in your operating instructions that discusses the guidelines for selecting print media
to avoid the possibility of harmful emissions.
CAUTION—HOT SURFACE: The fuser and the inside of the printer near the fuser may be hot. To reduce the risk
