Pick an installation spot

Where should you install your fax machine? The location should be:
• Clean — Dust buildup can damage your machine. (However, do not use a cover!)
• In the open — Allow at least 30 cm of clearance around your machine. Be sure
that you 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 (such as from a water foun-
tain) could reach your fax machine.
• Level, and vibration-free.
• Near a phone jack — Your fax machine uses a standard (modular) telephone
jack, also known as an LJU.
• Near an power outlet — The
AC
stretched to its limit, and the power cord should never be stretched to its limit.

phone and electrical lines. This device helps to shield your fax machine from
damaging high-voltage electrical surges.

• Use a standard three-pronged 230
• Make sure the outlet isn't controlled by a wall switch.
If it is, you'll risk occasional shutoffs to the machine, causing you
to lose fax messages.
• Don't use an outlet which also is supplying power to a
large appliance, such as a refrigerator or air conditioner.
Such high-consumption appliances can cause "draw-downs"
(temporary drops in the power available for other equipment on
the circuit) which could damage your fax machine.
