Please keep these instructions for later reference and read them before attempting any

maintenance.

WARNING

DO NOT place the machine near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or devices that

contain magnets or generate magnetic fields.

Plastic bags are used in the packing of your machine. To avoid the danger of suffocation, keep

these bags away from babies and children.

DO NOT use flammable substances, any type of spray, or an organic solvent/liquid that contains

alcohol or ammonia to clean the inside or outside of the machine. Refer to Routine maintenance

on the instructions for how to clean the machine.

Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots, since they may touch

dangerous voltage points or short out parts resulting in the risk of fire or electric shock. If metal

objects, water or other liquids get inside the machine, immediately unplug the machine from the

AC power outlet. Call Brother Customer Service.

Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone line has

been unplugged at the wall jack. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. Never

install a telephone wall jack in a wet location. (MFC only)

DO NOT connect it to a DC power source or inverter. If you are not sure, contact a qualified

electrician.

When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to

reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to people, including the following:

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to people;

DO NOT handle the plug with wet hands. Doing this might cause an electrical shock.

Always make sure the plug is fully inserted.

There are high voltage electrodes inside the machine. Before you clean the inside of the

machine, make sure you have unplugged the telephone line cord first (MFC only) and

then the power cord from the AC power outlet. Doing this will prevent an electrical shock.

2 Never spill liquid of any kind on the product. DO NOT attempt to service this product yourself

because opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage points and other

risks and may void your warranty. Refer all servicing to a Brother Authorized Service Center.

For the location of your nearest Brother Authorized Service Center, please call:

In USA: 1-877-BROTHER (1-877-276-8437)

3 Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. Never install a telephone wall socket

in a wet location. (MFC only)

4 Unplug this product from the power outlet and refer all servicing to Brother Authorized

Service Personnel under the following conditions:

When the power cord is damaged or frayed.

If liquid has been spilled into the product.

If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

5 If an extension cord is used with this product, make sure that the total ampere ratings on the

products plugged into the extension cord DO NOT exceed the extension cord ampere rating.

Also, make sure that the total of all products plugged into the AC power outlet does not

exceed 15 amperes (USA only). (MFC only)

The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power is grounded

and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective

grounding of the power, consult a qualified electrician.

Never spill liquid of any kind and put metal objects on the plug and/or AC adaptor.

CAUTION

Choosing a location

Put your machine on a flat, stable surface that is free of vibration and shocks, such as a desk.

Put the machine near a telephone wall jack and a standard AC power outlet. Choose a location

where the temperature remains between 50 °F and 95 °F (10 °C and 35 °C).

Put your machine on a flat, stable surface that is free of vibration and shocks, such as a desk.

Make sure cables leading to the machine do not constitute a trip hazard.

DO NOT expose the machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, open flames, salty or corrosive

gasses, moisture or dust.

DO NOT sit on the machine.

Avoid placing your machine on a carpet.

If the machine becomes hot, releases smoke, or generates any strong smells, immediately

unplug the machine from the AC power outlet. Call Brother Customer Service.

DO NOT put your hands on the edge of the machine. Doing this may cause injury.

DO NOT touch the area shaded in the illustration. Doing this may cause injury.

DO NOT carry the machine by holding the scanner cover or the Jam Clear Cover.

Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. To ensure

reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be

blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed,

sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator

or heater. This product should never be placed in a built-in installation unless adequate

ventilation is provided.

If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged, unplug this product from the

power outlet and refer all servicing to Brother Authorized Service Personnel.

IMPORTANT

• Disruption of power can wipe out information in the machine's memory.

• DO NOT put objects on top of the machine.

• DO NOT tip the machine, or place it on any tilted surface. Doing this may cause ink spillage

and internal damage to your machine.

• If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed, adjust

only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other

controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician

to restore the product to normal operation.

• If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.

• Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified in User’s

Guide may result in hazardous invisible radiation exposure.

Note

• DO NOT connect your machine to an AC power outlet on the same circuit as large appliances

or other equipment that might disrupt the power supply.

• DO NOT connect your machine to an AC power outlet controlled by wall switches or automatic

timers.

• Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of non-Brother cordless

telephones.

• DO NOT place anything in front of the machine that will block received faxes. DO NOT place

anything in the path of received faxes. (MFC only)

• Wait until pages have exited the machine before picking them up.

• The power cord, including extensions, should be no longer than 16.5 feet (5 meters).

DO NOT share the same power circuit with other high powered appliances, such as an air

conditioner, copier, shredder, and so on. If you cannot avoid using the printer with these

appliances, we recommend that you use a voltage transformer or a high-frequency noise filter.

Use a voltage regulator if the power source is not stable.

• To protect your product against power surges, we recommend the use of a power protection

device (Surge Protector).

contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this

product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX.The digits

represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 06 is a REN of 0.6). For earlier

products, the REN is separately shown on the label.
