Facts about the Safety of Xerox Products 4
Safety Data Sheets
Xerox prepares two types of data sheets that summarize safety and health information for its equipment
and supplies products:
• Product Safety Data Sheets (PSDSs) contain information about the mechanical, electrical and
environmental attributes of our equipment as well as product emission data.
• Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) provide information on potential hazards and the safe use of
products that may be classified as chemicals. They also contain storage, shipping and disposal
information.
General Safety Practices
To ensure the safety of those who use and care for our equipment, it is important to observe these
fundamental rules:
• Site the equipment according to published Xerox installation requirements. Installation requirements
should be reviewed whenever equipment is moved to a new location.
• Equipment must be connected to a properly grounded electrical service outlet.
• Comply with all caution and warning labels in order to avoid potentially hazardous conditions.
• Do not bypass or defeat interlocked covers. These covers prevent creation of hazardous conditions,
which could occur if they were opened.
• Only trained service personnel may remove covers or guards held in place by fasteners that cannot
be detached without using tools.
• Only Xerox-approved maintenance procedures and materials are to be used.
• Equipment should be stopped immediately, disconnected from its power supply and serviced before
next use if unusual noises, odors or smoke are noticed.
• Dispose of spent materials and products according to information provided on Material Safety Data
Sheets on www.xerox.com/environment.
• Do not stare at equipment light sources, which can produce temporary nuisance effects or discomfort.
