Symbols in this manual
To ensure safe use of the machine, this manual uses various safety symbols.
The safety symbols are classified as explained below. Be sure you understand
the meaning of the symbols when reading the manual.
Meaning of the symbols
WARNING
Indicates a risk of death or serious
injury.
CAUTION! HOT
PINCH POINT KEEP CLEAR
PROHIBITED ACTIONS
Power notes
WARNING
Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that meets the
specified voltage and current requirements. Also make certain the outlet
is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord or adapter to connect
other devices to the power outlet used by the machine.
Using an improper power supply may cause fire or electrical shock.
* For the power supply requirements, see the name plate on the left
side of the machine.
Do not damage or modify the power cord.
Placing heavy objects on the power cord, pulling it, or forcibly bending it
will damage the cord, resulting in fire or electrical shock.
Do not insert or remove the power plug with wet hands.
This may cause electrical shock.
CAUTION
When removing the power plug from the outlet, do not pull on the
cord.
Pulling on the cord may cause damage such as wire exposure and
breakage, and may result in fire or electrical shock.
If you will not use the machine for a long time, be sure to remove
the power plug from the outlet for safety.
When moving the machine, switch off the main power and remove
the power plug from the outlet before moving.
The cord may be damaged, will create a risk of fire or electrical shock.
Installation notes
CAUTION
Do not install the machine on an unstable or slanted surface. Install the
machine on a surface that can withstand the weight of the machine.
Risk of injury due to the machine falling or toppling.
If peripheral devices are to be installed, do not install on an uneven floor,
slanted surface, or otherwise unstable surface. Danger of slippage, falling, and
toppling. Install the product on a flat, stable surface that can withstand the
weight of the product.
Do not install the equipment on a stand made of glass.
Do not install in a location with moisture or dust.
Risk of fire and electrical shock.
If dust enters the machine, dirty output and machine failure may result.
Locations that are excessively hot, cold, humid, or dry (near
heaters, humidifiers, air conditioners, etc.)
The paper will become damp and condensation may form inside the
machine, causing misfeeds and dirty output.
If the location has an ultrasonic humidifier, use pure water for humidifiers in the
humidifier. If tap water is used, minerals and other impurities will be emitted,
causing impurities to collect on the inside of the machine and create dirty output.
CAUTION
Indicates a risk of human injury or
property damage.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE
MANDATORY ACTIONS
When the machine is installed, the adjusters must be lowered to
the floor to secure the machine (prevent it from moving).
Rotate the adjusters in the locking direction until they are in firm contact
with the floor.
If you find it necessary to reposition the machine due to rearrangement of
your office layout or other reason, retract the adjusters from the floor,
turn off the power, and then move the machine.
(After moving the machine, lower the adjusters again to secure the machine.)
Locations exposed to direct sunlight
Plastic parts may become deformed and dirty output may result.
Locations with ammonia gas
Installing the machine next to a diazo copy machine may cause dirty
output.
Do not install the machine in a location with poor air circulation.
A small amount of ozone is created inside the machine during printing. The
amount of ozone created is not sufficient to be harmful; however, an
unpleasant odor may be noticed during large copy runs, and thus the machine
should be installed in a room with a ventilation fan or windows that provide
sufficient air circulation. (The odor may occasionally cause headaches.)
* Install the machine so that people are not directly exposed to exhaust
from the machine. If installed near a window, ensure that the machine
not be exposed to direct sunlight.
Near a wall
Be sure to allow the required space
around the machine for servicing and
proper ventilation. (The machine
should be no closer than the distances
indicated below from walls.)
Locations subject to vibration.
Vibration may cause failure.
If you will not use the machine for a long time, be sure to remove
the power plug from the outlet for safety.
The machine includes a built-in local drive. Do not subject the machine to
shock or vibration. In particular, never move the machine while the power is on.
•
The machine should be installed near an accessible power outlet for
easy connection.
•
Connect the machine to a power outlet which is not used for other electric
appliances. If a lighting fixture is connected to the same outlet, the light may flicker.
About consumables
CAUTION
Do not throw a toner cartridge into a fire.
Toner may fly and cause burns.
Store a toner cartridge out of the reach of children.
Handling precautions
WARNING
Do not place a container of water or other liquid, or a metal object
that might fall inside, on the machine.
If the liquid spills or the object falls into the machine, fire or electrical
shock may result.
Do not remove the machine casing.
High-voltage parts inside the machine may cause electrical shock.
Do not make any modifications to this machine.
Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the machine.
Do not use a flammable spray to clean the machine.
If gas from the spray comes in contact with hot electrical components or
the fusing unit inside the machine, fire or electrical shock may result.
If you notice smoke, a strange odor, or other abnormality, do not
use the machine.
If used in this condition, fire or electrical shock may result.
Immediately switch off the main power and remove the power plug from
the power outlet.
Contact your dealer or nearest SHARP Service Department.
If a thunder storm begins, switch off the main power and remove
the power plug from the outlet to prevent electrical shock and fire
due to lightning.
