    2: 10 sec.
    3: 20 sec.
    4: 60 sec.
    5: 90 sec.
    6: 120 sec. Auto clear time automatically returns the 
    copy settings to the initial settings (p.8) when a 
    certain period of time elapses after a copy is 
    made. This program is used to select the 
    period of time. Auto clear time can also be 
    disabled.

    2: 5 min.
    3: 30 min.
    4: 60 min.
    5: 120 min.
    6: 240 min. This function automatically switches the 
    machine to a low power consumption state if 
    the set duration of time elapses without the 
    machine being used when the power is on. 
    The POWER SAVE indicator ( ) lights up, 
    however, the keys on the operation panel can 
    be used. Normal operation automatically 
    resumes when a key on the operation panel is 
    pressed, a print job is received or an original is 
    placed.

    machine to a state that consumes even less 
    power than preheat mode if the set duration of 
    time elapses without the machine being used 
    when the power is on. All lights except the 
    POWER SAVE indicator ( ) and ON LINE 
    indicator go off. To resume normal operation, 
    press the [START] key ( ). 
    Normal operation also resumes automatically 
    when a print job is received. While in auto 
    power shut-off mode, no keys (except the 
    [START] key ( )) can be used.

    select paper of the same size that is loaded in 
    the opposite orientation, and rotate the image 
    90 degrees so that it is copied on the paper in 
    the correct orientation.
     When the auto ratio select function is 
    operating and the original and paper are 
    loaded in opposite orientations, this function 
    rotates the image so that it is copied on the
