Setting up

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 12 inches 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 —-11.
RJ
• Near an power outlet — The
AC
stretched to its limit, and the power cord should never be stretched to its limit.

Power tips

• Use a standard three—-pronged 120
• 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.
• Use an electrical surge suppressor, preferably one which guards both tele-
phone and electrical lines. This device helps to shield your fax machine from
damaging high—-voltage electrical surges.
Voltage requirements: 120 ± 10%, 50–60% Hz.
