Handling the main machine

This section explains safety precautions about handling the main machine.

Turn off the power and disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if any of the following occurs:
- You spill something into the machine.
- You suspect that your machine needs service or repair.
- The external housing of your machine has been damaged.

Protect the machine from dampness or wet weather, such as rain and snow.

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the machine, you should take care that the power cord will not be damaged under the machine.

After you move the machine, use the caster fixture to fix it in place. Otherwise the machine might move or come down to cause an injury.

Contact your service representative if you need to lift the machine (such as when relocating it to another floor). Do not attempt to lift the machine without the assistance of your service representative. The machine will be damaged if it topples or is dropped, resulting in malfunction and risk of injury to users. The machine's various handling areas are for service engineer use only. Do not touch these areas.

Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside the machine.
Do not look into the lamp. It can damage your eyes.
For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the machine or expended supply waste at household waste collection points. Disposal can take place at an authorized dealer.
