Connecting The Power Cord - Canon FAX-L290 User Manual

Connecting the Power Cord

Before connecting the power cord, see Power Supply, p. 1-6.
Follow this procedure to connect the power cord:
Connect the supplied power cord
to the power cord connector.
Then connect the other end into
a properly grounded 200—240 V
AC three-prong outlet.*
The FAX has no power switch, so its power is on as long as it is plugged in. Once
connected, though, the unit still needs time to warm up before you can use it. Wait until
the LCD no longer displays PLEASE WAIT.
n
• The FAX is equipped with a three-prong, grounding-type plug provided with a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug into your outlet, contact an electrician to replace the
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug by breaking off the
third prong or using a 3-to-2 adaptor.*
• Do not plug the FAX into the same circuit as an appliance such as an air conditioner,
electric typewriter, television, or copier. Such devices generate electrical noise that can
interfere with your FAX's ability to send and receive faxes.
When you connect the power cord to an AC outlet for the first time, DISPLAY
LANGUAGE will appear in the LCD display after PLEASE WAIT. In this case, set the
language for the LCD display and the country**. (
* The shape of the plug and outlet vary depending on the country of purchase.
** The country selection feature is available for certain countries only.
