Getting started
Setting up
Pick an installation spot first
Where should you install your fax machine? The location should be:
• Clean — Dust buildup can damage your machine.
• In the open — Allow at least 12 inches of clearance around your machine.
Never cover the machine. Its vents must be able to "breathe."
• Away from direct sunlight — This helps avoid overheating.
• Dry — Avoid any location where splatters or sprays of liquid could reach your
fax machine.
• Level, and vibration-free.
• Near a phone jack — Your fax machine uses a standard telephone jack, also
known as an RJ-11.
• Near an
power outlet — Allow plenty of slack for your fax machine's power
AC
cord. It should never be stretch to its 5-foot limit.
Power tips
• Use a standard three-pronged 120
• Make sure the outlet isn't controlled by a wall
switch. If it is, you will risk inadvertent shutoffs of your
machine, causing you to lose fax messages.
• Don't use an outlet which also is supplying power
to a large appliance, such a refrigerator or air condi-
tioner. Such high-consumption appliances can cause
(temporary drops in the power available for other equip-
ment which could damage your fax machine.
• Use an electrical surge suppressor, which guards
both telephone and electrical lines. This device helps to
shield your fax machine from damaging high-voltage
electrical surges.
