8 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.

Safety Information 9 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.

Safety Information 10 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION Caution on Toner Use ■Avoid ingestion, inhalation, eye or skin contact. ●If ingestion occurs, drink several glasses of water to dilute stomach contents. ●If inhalation occurs, exit the area immediately into the fresh air. ●If skin contact occurs, wash thoroughly with soap and water. ●If eye contact occurs, flush thoroughly with water. ●In all cases, seek medical treatment if adverse symptoms occur. ■When the toner cartridge is at the end of its life, do not dispose of it into a fire. It can cause an explosion and you can get burnt. ■Keep the toner cartridge out of children’s reach. Store in a cool and dry place (low humidity). Do not unseal the toner cartridge unless you are ready to use it. For Your Safety When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following: ●DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT NEAR WATER, FOR EXAMPLE, NEAR A BATH TUB, WASH BOWL, KITCHEN SINK OR LAUNDRY TUB, IN A WET BASEMENT OR NEAR A SWIMMING POOL. ●AVOID USING A TELEPHONE (OTHER THAN A CORDLESS TYPE) DURING AN ELECTRICAL STORM. THERE MAY BE A REMOTE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK FROM LIGHTNING. ●DO NOT USE THE TELEPHONE TO REPORT A GAS LEAK IN THE VICINITY OF THE LEAK. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Others Consumable Safeguards ■The machine has a built-in circuit for protection against lightning-induced surge current. If lightning strikes in your neighborhood, maintain ample distance from the machine and do not touch the machine until the lightning has stopped. ■ ●Move the machine and the TV and/or radio away from each other. ●Reposition or reorient the machine and the TV and/ or radio. ●Unplug the machine, TV and/or radio, and replug them into outlets operating on different circuits. ●Reorient the TV and/or radio antennas and cables until the interference stops. For an outdoor antenna, ask your local electrician for support. ●Use a coaxial cable antenna. If you notice flickering or distorted images or noises on your audio-visual units, your machine may be causing radio interference. Unplug the machine and if the interference disappears, the machine is the cause of the radio interference. Perform the following procedure until the interference is corrected.
