Choose a safe location for your product 1

Put your product on a flat, level, stable surface free from vibration and shocks, such as a desk.

Put the product near a telephone socket (MFC only) and a standard earthed electrical socket.

Choose a location where the temperature remains between 10C and 32C and the humidity is

between 20% to 80% (without condensation).

WARNING

DO NOT expose the product to direct sunlight, excessive heat, open flames, corrosive gasses,

moisture or dust. Doing so may create a risk of an electrical shock, short circuit or fire. It may

also damage the product and/or render it inoperable.

DO NOT place the product near heaters, air conditioners, electrical fans, refrigerators, or water.

Doing so may create the risk of an electrical shock, short circuit or fire, as water may come into

contact with the product (including condensation caused by heating/air conditioning/ventilation

equipment).

DO NOT place the product near chemicals or in a place where chemical spillage could occur. In

particular, organic solvents or liquids may cause the casing and/or cables to melt or dissolve,

risking fire or electric shock. They may also cause the product to malfunction or become

discoloured.

DO NOT put the product in a location that blocks or obstructs any slot or opening in the product.

These slots and openings are provided for ventilation. Blocking the product’s ventilation could

create a risk of overheating and/or fire.

immediately.

DO NOT place heavy objects on the product.

is an added risk of injury if the scanner glass should break. Particularly, if you have children,

please make sure the product is located in a safe position.

should the product malfunction.
