Before You Start Using This Machine This chapter describes what you should know before using the machine. Installation Location and Handling ............... . . 1-2 Installation Precautions .
Installation Location and Handling This section describes precautions for installation location and handling. We recommend that you read this section prior to using this machine. Installation Precautions Avoid Installing the Machine in the Following Locations Avoid locations subject to temperature and humidity extremes, whether low or high.
Page 39
Avoid poorly ventilated locations. This machine generates a slight amount of ozone during normal use. Although sensitivity to ozone may vary, this amount is not harmful. Ozone may be more noticeable during extended use or long production runs, especially in poorly ventilated rooms. It is recommended that the room be appropriately ventilated, sufficient to maintain a comfortable working environment, in areas of machine operation.
Page 40
Avoid locations that are subject to vibration. For example, avoid installing the machine on unstable floors or stands. Avoid exposing the machine to rapid changes in temperature. If the room in which the machine is installed is cold but rapidly heated, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the machine.
Do not remove the machine's leveling feet. Do not remove the machine's leveling feet after the machine has been installed. If you put weight on the front of the machine while the drawers or units within the machine are pulled out, the machine may fall forward. To prevent this from happening, make sure that the machine's leveling feet are in place.
Moving the Machine If you intend to move the machine, even to a location on the same floor of your building, contact your local authorized Canon dealer beforehand. Do not attempt to move the machine yourself. Handling Precautions Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the machine.
Page 43
OFF, disconnect the power cord from the outlet, and call your local authorized Canon dealer. Using the machine in this state may cause a fire or electrical shock. Also, avoid placing objects around the power plug so that the machine can be disconnected whenever necessary.
