2. Getting Started

Turning On/Off the Power

The main power switch is on the left side of the machine. Turning off this switch makes the main power
indicator on the right side of the control panel go off. When this is done, machine power is off. When the
fax unit is installed, fax files in memory may be lost if you turn this switch off. Use this switch only when
necessary.

Turning On the Main Power

• Do not turn off the main power switch immediately after turning it on. Doing so may result in
damage to the hard disk or memory, leading to malfunctions.
1. Make sure the power cord is firmly plugged into the wall outlet.
2. Turn on the main power switch.
The main power indicator goes on.

Turning Off the Main Power

• When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord.
Pulling the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire
or electric shock.
• After turning the machine's power off, wait at least a few seconds before turning it back on. If the
message "Turn main Power Switch off" appears, turn the machine's power off, wait 10 seconds or
more, and then turn it back on again. Never turn the power back on immediately after turning it off.
