Safety Notes 13
Only use the power cord supplied with the
equipment. Using a different power cord
may cause fire or electric shock. Do not use
the power cord supplied with the
equipment on any other equipment.
Do not attempt to rework, pull, bend, chafe,
or otherwise damage the power cord. Do
not place a heavy object on the cord. A
damaged cord can cause fire or electric
shocks.
Never touch a power cord with wet hands.
Danger of electric shock exists.
Stop operation immediately if your machine
produces smoke, excessive heat, unusual
noise, or smell, or if water is split onto the
machine. These conditions can cause fire.
Immediately switch off and unplug the
machine, and contact our Customer
Support Center or dealers.
To prevent fire or electric shocks, follow the
instruction below based on your machine
configuration. If in doubt, contact our
Customer Support Center or dealers.
• If your machine is a 220-240 V model,
there is no need to attach a separate
earth line since the earth connection is
incorporated in the power line. Plug it into
a properly rated outlet.
• If your machine is a 100 or 110 V model,
use the green earth wire that extends
from the power plug.
The earth wire must be connected to one of
the following conductors:
- Earth terminal of the specified power
outlet
- A piece of copper buried in the earth
750 mm or deeper
- Earth terminal with Class D* earthing.
*Class D is the regulation for Japan
only.
Never connect the earth wire to any of the
following:
• Gas pipe, which can be ignited and
explode
• Telephone line earth wire or lightning
rod, which can draw an excessive
electric current if hit by lightning
• Water faucet or pipe whose electrical
conductivity is broken by a non-metal
part
If the power cord is broken or insulated
wires are exposed, ask our Customer
Support Center or dealers for a
replacement. Using a damaged cord can
cause fire or electric shocks.
Do not unplug or replug the machine while
it is on. Unplugging a live connector can
deform the plug and cause fire.
When unplugging the machine, grasp the
plug instead of the cord. Forcibly pulling on
a cord can damage it and cause fire or
electric shocks.
Be sure to switch off and unplug the
machine before accessing the interior of
the machine for cleaning, maintenance, or
fault clearance. Access to a live machine's
interior can cause electric shocks.
Once a month, unplug the machine and
check the power cord for the following:
• The power cord is plugged firmly into a
receptacle.
• The plug is not excessively heated,
rusted, or bent.
• The plug and receptacle are free of dust.
• The cord is not cracked or frayed.
If you notice any unusual conditions,
contact our Customer Support Center or
dealers.
The power cord set of our company has an
earth fault interrupter. In the event of a
current leakage, the interrupter will
automatically cut off the power circuit to
prevent any leakages or fire from
occurring. Once a month, check the
protection circuit for correct operation using
the following procedure:
1. Press the TEST button on the power
cord set with a thin stick or similar
object.
2. Verify that the RESET button is
popped up.
