Tips on handling the power cord

To operate the printer with maximum safety, always observe the following

precautions:

• Avoid using an extension cord. However, if this is unavoidable, be sure to take

the following precautions. (Failure to do this may result in overheating, ﬁre, or

ﬂickering due to a drop in voltage.)

• Be sure not to exceed the allowed current rating of the extension cord.

• Use only a short extension cord. Do not connect several extension cords

together as this is dangerous.

• Disconnect the printer by pulling on the plug, not the cord.

• Turn off the printer and disconnect the power plug in the following situations:

• The printer produces smoke, odor, or excess noise.

• The cord or plug is damaged or gets frayed.

• A liquid is spilled onto the printer or into the interior.

• The printer is exposed to water or excess moisture.

• The printer falls or any damage is caused to the exterior.

• Service or repair is required.

• The printer needs to be cleaned. (Use only the recommended cleaning

procedure.)

• Keep the outlet free from any obstacles to allow easy access to it.

• Do not overload the AC outlet and extension cords as this causes a risk of ﬁre or

electrical shock.
