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.
• Where 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.

• 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 underneath the mecha-
nism.
