Brother P-touch E300 User Manual page 8

INTRODUCTION
P-touch
Follow these guidelines to avoid fire, electric shock, the risk of injury to yourself or others,
and/or damage to the labelling system or other property.
DO NOT allow the labelling system to
get wet or use the labelling system in
areas that may become wet, such as
bathrooms or near sinks.
DO NOT touch any metal parts near the
print head. The print head becomes
very hot during use and remains very
hot immediately after use. Do not touch
it directly with your hands.
DO NOT use the P-touch with a foreign object in it. If water, a metallic substance,
or any other foreign object enters the P-touch, disconnect the AC adapter and remove
the batteries, and contact Brother customer service.
Alkaline batteries/Ni-MH rechargeable batteries
Follow these guidelines to avoid liquid leakage, heat, rupture of the battery and cause
personal injury.
DO NOT throw into fire, heat up,
short-circuit, recharge, or disassemble
the battery.
DO NOT allow batteries to get wet, for
example, by handling them with wet
hands or spilling beverages onto them.
If fluid leaked from the batteries gets into
your eyes, immediately rinse your eyes
with a large amount of clean water, and
then seek medical attention. If leaked
fluid enters your eyes, loss of eyesight
or other damage to the eyes may result.

Safety Precautions
WARNING
DO NOT disassemble the P-touch.
For inspection, adjustment, and repair
of the labelling system, contact Brother
customer service.
Plastic bags are used in the packaging
of your labelling system. To avoid
danger of suffocation, keep these bags
away from babies and children.
If you notice heat, an abnormal odour,
discolouration of the labelling system,
deformation, or anything else unusual
while using or storing the labelling
system, immediately discontinue use of
the labelling system, disconnect the
AC adapter, and remove the batteries.
To prevent damage, do not drop or hit
the P-touch.
DO NOT allow a metal object to contact
both the plus and minus ends of a
battery.
DO NOT use sharp objects, such as
tweezers or a metallic pen, to remove or
replace the batteries.
DO NOT use a damaged, deformed, or
leaking battery, or a battery whose label
is damaged. Doing so may result in
generating excessive heat. Use of a
damaged or leaking battery may also
lead to battery fluid getting on your
hands. If leaked fluid gets onto your
hands and you rub your eyes, loss of
eyesight or other damage to the eyes
may result. Immediately rinse your
hands with a large amount of clean
water, and then seek medical attention.
