Notes on Safety (Please Read and Observe) WARNING CAUTION Safety Precautions

● Caution for Grounding

WARNING ● Use only the power cord that is provided among the accessories. Insert the power cord plug fi rmly into the socket, so that proper electrical contact is effected. Use of any other power cord could result in imperfect grounding. If grounding is imperfect and electrical leakage occurs, fi re or electric shock could result. ● Caution for Power Supply and Power Cord WARNING ● Do not use a source voltage other than that specifi ed. Do not connect two or more loads to a single outlet. →Doing so may result in fi re or electric shock. ● Be sure to remove dust on the power plug and/or the outlet. Using these without removing dust may have minute electric current fl ow to the surface due to the humidity and cause a fi re due to the heat. →It may cause a fi re or electric shock. ● Do not insert or remove the power plug with wet hands. →Doing so may result in fi re or electric shock. ● Do not damage, break, or modify the power cord. Do not place heavy objects on, tug, or unnecessarily bend the power cord. → Doing so may result in fi re or electric shock. CAUTION ● Remove the power plug itself, not the cord. → Tugging the cord may damage it (expose conductors, or cause disconnections, etc.), resulting in fi re or electric shock.

● Prohibition of Disassembly or Modifi cation

WARNING ● Do not modify the machine. →Doing so may result in fi re or electric shock. ● Do not remove the rear lid, cabinet, or covers from the machine. → The inside of the machine contains high-voltage parts, which may cause electric shock. ● Caution for Location WARNING ● Do not place the machine in a humid or dusty area. →Doing so may result in fi re or electric shock. CAUTION ● Before moving the machine, remove the power plug from the outlet. → If the cord is damaged, this may result in fi re or electric shock. ● Do not place the machine in an unstable position such as on an unsteady table or sloping area. →If the machine drops or falls over, it may result in injury. ● Do not place the machine in a place subject to direct sunlight or heating equipment such as a stove. ● Avoid placing the machine in a place subject to high or low temperature or high humidity. →The paper absorbs moisture and it may cause paper jam or creasing. ● Leave the power cord unplugged when the machine is not used for a long period. →Insulation may deteriorate and cause an electrical fi re.

● Caution for Cleaning

CAUTION ● Before cleaning the machine, turn off the power switch and unplug the power cord. →If the machine is activated accidentally, injury may result. ● Do not use fl ammable sprays or solvents inside or near the machine. →Gas may accumulate inside the machine causing a fi re or explosion. ● Preventing Injury to Hands or Fingers WARNING ● The center slitter contains uncovered blades.
