Zam PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
@ Installation Site
To ensure safety and utmost performance of the copier, the copier should NOT be
used in a place:
@ Where it will be subject to extremely high or low temperature or humidity.
@ Which is exposed to direct sunlight.
@ Which is in the direct air stream of an air conditioner, heater or ventilator.
@ Which puts the operator in the direct stream of exhaust from the copier.
@ Which has poor ventilation.
@ Where ammonia gas might be generated.
@ Which does not have a stable, level floor,
@ Were it will be subject to sudden fluctuations in either temperature or humidity.
If a cold room is quickly heated, condensation forms inside the copier, resulting in
blank spots in the copy.
@ Which is near any kind of heating device.
@ Where it may be splashed with water.
@ Which is dirty or where it will receive undue vibration,
@ Which is near volatile flammables or curtains,
Power Source
Use an outlet with a capacity of 115/120/127V, 13.2A or more, or 200/220/240V, 8.1 A
or more.
@ If any other electrical equipment is sourced from the same power outlet, make sure
that the capacity of the outlet is not exceeded.
@ Use a power source with little voltage fluctuation.
@ Never connect by means of a multiple socket any other appliances or machines
to the outlet being used for the copier.
@ Make the following checks at frequent intervals:
e Is the power plug abnormally hot?
« Are there any cracks or scrapes in the cord?
e Has the power plug been inserted fully into the outlet?
e Does something, including the copier itself, ride on the power cord?
@ Ensure that the copier does not ride on the power cord or communications cable
of other electrical equipment, and that it does not become wedged into or under-
neath the mechanism.
Grounding
To prevent receiving electrical shocks in the case of electrical leakage, always ground
the copier.
@ Connect the grounding wire to:
@ The ground terminal of the outlet.
«
A
grounding
contact
which
complies
with
the
local
electrical
standards.
@
Never
connect
the
grounding
wire
to
a
gas
pipe,
the

em PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
To ensure that the copier is used in an optimum condition, observe the following pre-
cautions.
@ Never place a heavy object on the copier or subject the copier to shocks.
@ Insert the power plug all the way into the outlet.
@ Do not attempt to remove any panel or cover which is secured while the copier is
making copies.
@ Do not turn OFF the Power Switch while the copier is making copies.
@ Provide good ventilation when making a large number of copies continuously.
@ Never use flammable sprays near the copier.
@ If the copier becomes inordinately hot or produces abnormal noise, turn it OFF and
unplug it.
@ Do not turn ON the Power Switch at the same time when you plug the power cord
into the outlet.
@ When unplugging the power cord, do not pull on the cord; hold the plug and pull
it out.
@ Do not bring any magnetized object near the copier.
@ Do not place a vase or vessel containing water on the copier.
@ Be sure to turn OFF the Power Switch at the end of the workday or upon power
failure.
@ Use care not to drop paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal into the
copier.
Operating Environment
The operating environmental requirements of the copier are as follows.
@ Temperature: 10°C to 3000 with a fluctuation of 1000 per hour
e Humidity: 15% to 65% RH with a fluctuation of 10% RH per hour
M@ Power Requirements
The power source voltage requirements are as follows.
e Voltage Fluctuation: AC1 16/120/127/220/230/240V
+ 10% (Copying performance assured)
-15% (Paper feeding performance assured)
("AC127V: *8 %)
e Frequency Fluctuation: 50/60 Hz +0.3%
