5.6.2 BEFORE YOU BEGIN 
An SD card is a precision device. Always observe the following precautions when you 
handle SD cards: 
ƒ  Always switch the machine off before you insert an SD card. Never insert the SD card 
into the slot with the power on. 
ƒ  Do not remove the SD card from the service slot after the power has been switched on. 
ƒ  Never switch the machine off while the firmware is downloading from the SD card. 
ƒ  Keep SD cards in a safe location where they are not exposed to high temperature, high 
humidity, or exposure to direct sunlight. 
ƒ  Always handle SD cards with care. Do not bend or scratch them. Do not let the SD 
card get exposed to shock or vibration. 
ƒ  Make sure that the write protection of an SD card is unlocked when you download an 
application to it. If not, downloading fails and a download error (e.g. Error Code 44) 
occurs during a firmware upgrade. 
Keep the following points in mind when you use the firmware update software: 
ƒ  “Upload” means to send data from the machine to the SD card.    “Download” means to 
send data from the SD card to the machine. 
ƒ  To select an item on the LCD, touch the appropriate button on the soft touch-screen of 
the LCD, or, press the appropriate number key on the 10-key pad of the operation 
panel. For example, when “Exit (0)” shows on the screen you can touch the Exit button 
on the screen, or, press the 
  button on the operation panel of the copier.
