    Getting to Know Your Machine
    Safety Information
    For Your  Safety
    To prevent severe injury and loss of life, read this section carefully before using your machine to ensure proper and 
    safe operation of your machine.
    ■This section explains the Warnings and Cautions used in this Operating Instructions manual.
    WARNINGDenotes a potential hazard that could result in serious injury, or death.
    CAUTIONDenotes hazards that could result in minor injury, or damage to the machine.
    ■This section also explains the graphic symbols used in this Operating Instructions manual.
    (Graphic symbols below are the examples)
    WARNING
    When the machine is not used over an extended
    period of time, unplug it. If an unused machine 
    is left connected to a power source for a long 
    period, degraded insulation can cause electric 
    shocks, current leakage or fire.
    Once a month, unplug the machine and check
    the power cord for the following. If you notice
    any unusual condition, contact the authorized
    Panasonic dealer.
    ●The power cord is plugged firmly into the
    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.
    Power and Ground Connection
    Cautions
    Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust.
    In a damp environment, a contaminated
    connector can draw a significant amount of
    current that can generate heat and eventually
    cause fire if left unattended over an extended
    period of time.
    Always use the power cord provided with your
    machine.
    If you use a cord with an unspecified current
    rating, the machine, or plug may emit smoke,
    or become hot to the touch.
    Do not attempt to repair, 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.
    If the power cord is broken, or insulated wires
    are exposed, contact the authorized Panasonic
    dealer for a replacement. Using a damaged cord
    can cause fire, or electric shocks.
    When disconnecting the machine, grasp the
    plug instead of the cord. Pulling on a cord
    forcibly can damage it and cause fire, or electric
    shock.These symbols are used to aler t operators to a specific operating procedure that must not be
    performed.
    These symbols are used to alert operators to a specific operating procedure that must be
    emphasized in order to operate the machine safely.
    This symbol is used to alert operators to a heated surface that may cause burns and requires
    close attention.
    Be sure to 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 shock. Stop operation immediately if your machine 
    emits smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise or 
    smell, or if water is spilt onto the machine. 
    These conditions can cause fire. Immediately 
    unplug the machine and contact the 
    authorized Panasonic dealer.

    Getting to Know 
    Your Machine
    CAUTION
    Never open or remove machine covers that
    are secured with screws unless specifically
    instructed in the “Operating Instructions”. A high-
    voltage component can cause electric shocks.
    Do not try to alter the machine configuration or
    modify any parts. An unauthorized modification
    can cause smoke or fire.
    Consumable Safeguards Operating Safeguards
    Do not touch areas where these caution labels are
    attached to, the surface may be very hot and may
    cause severe burns.
    Do not place any liquid container such as a
    vase or coffee cup on the machine. Spilt water
    can cause fire or shock hazard.
    Do not place any metal parts such as staples
    or clips on the machine. If metal and flammable
    parts get into the machine, they can short-circuit
    internal components and cause fire or electric
    shocks.
    Installation and Relocation
    Cautions
    Do not place the machine in a hot, humid, dusty
    or poorly ventilated environment. Prolonged
    exposure to these adverse conditions can cause
    fire or electric shocks.
    When relocating the machine, contact the
    authorized Panasonic dealer.
    When moving the machine, be sure to unplug
    the power cord from the outlet. If the machine
    is moved with the power cord attached, it can
    cause damage to the cord which could result in
    fire or electric shock.
    Operating Safeguards
    Do not place a magnet near the safety switch
    of the machine. A magnet can activate the
    machine accidentally, resulting in injuries.
    Do not use a highly flammable spray or solvent
    near the machine. It can cause fire.
    If debris (Metal or liquid) gets into the machine,
    unplug the machine immediately.
    Contact the authorized Panasonic dealer.
    Operating a debris-contaminated machine can
    cause fire or electric shock.
    Do not place the machine near heaters or 
    volatile, flammable, or combustible materials 
    such as curtains that may catch fire.
    Place the machine on a level and sturdy 
    surface that can withstand a weight of the 
    machine. If tilted, the machine may tip-over 
    and cause injuries.Never dispose of toner into an open flame.
    Toner remaining in the cartridge can cause an 
    explosion, burns, and/or injuries. For disposal 
    or recycling information, contact your local 
    authorities, or your local waste officials.
    Do not use conductive paper. Ex: carbon 
    paper, and coated paper. When paper misfeed 
    occurs, it can cause a short-circuit and fire.
    Keep the room ventilated when using the 
    machine for an extended period of time to 
    minimize the ozone density in the air. Do not place any heavy objects on the machine.
    An off-balanced machine can tip-over or the 
    heavy object can fall, causing damage and/or 
    injuries.
    If accessing the inner components of the 
    machine to clear misfed paper, etc., exercise 
    care not to touch heated areas, or you may get 
    burned. Never touch heated areas near the heat roller. 
    You can get burnt.
    If a sheet of paper is wrapped around the heat 
    roller, do not try to remove it yourself to avoid 
    injuries or burns. Unplug the machine 
    immediately and contact an authorized 
    Panasonic dealer.
    When removing misfed paper, make sure that
    no pieces of torn paper are left in the machine.
    A piece of paper remaining in the machine can 
    cause fire. If a sheet of paper is wrapped 
    around the heat roller or when clearing a misfed 
    paper that is difficult or impossible to see, do not 
    try to remove it by yourself. Doing so can cause 
    injuries or burns. Unplug the machine 
    immediately and contact an authorized 
    Panasonic dealer.
