Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine. Unplug the machine from the telephone socket and then the power outlet and consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur: - Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been exposed to rain or water. - The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises. - The power cord is frayed or damaged. - The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine where people may walk on the power cord. This machine must only be connected to a 220 - 240 V, 50/60 Hz, earthed (2-prong) outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine. Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that you cannot remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service representative. Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine could be seriously damaged if it falls. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. Never install telephone sockets in wet locations unless the socket is specifically designed for wet locations. Never touch bare telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. The power outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible. 3 Table of Contents A Look at the Operation Panel 1.

Installation Unpacking Checklist Before setting up, make sure you have all of the following items. If any are missing, contact your dealer or retailer. Paper tray Paper tray extension Operation manual Gears (2) Handset Handset cord Telephone line cord Imaging film (initial starter roll) Points to keep in mind when setting up Do not place the machine in direct sunlight. Do not place the machine near heaters or air conditioners. Keep dust away from the machine. Keep the area around the machine clear. About condensation If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that condensation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper scanning of documents for transmission. To remove the condensation, turn on the power and wait approximately two hours before using the machine. 9 1. Installation Connections Connections Connecting the handset Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest. The ends of the handset cord are identical, so they will go into either socket. Make sure the handset cord goes into the socket marked with a handset symbol on the side of the machine!
