Handling

WARNING
Do not disassemble or modify the machine. There are high-temperature and high-voltage components inside the machine which may result in a fire or electrical shock.
Electrical equipment can be hazardous if not used properly. Do not allow children to touch the power cord, cables, internal gears, or electrical parts.
If the machine makes an unusual noise or emits smoke, heat, or an unusual smell, immediately turn OFF the power switches of the machine and computer and disconnect the interface cable if it is connected. Then, unplug the power plug from the AC power outlet and contact your local authorized Canon dealer. Continued use can result in a fire or electrical shock.
Do not use flammable sprays near the machine. If flammable substances come into contact with electrical parts inside the machine, this may result in a fire or electrical shock.
Always turn OFF the power switches of the machine and computer, and then unplug the power plug and interface cables before moving the machine. Failure to do so can damage the cables or cords, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.
Confirm that the power plug or power connector is inserted completely after moving the machine. Failure to do so can result in an overheating and fire.
Do not drop paper clips, staples, or other metal objects inside the machine. Also, do not spill water, liquids, or other flammable substances (alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, etc.) inside the machine. If these items come into contact with a high-voltage area inside the machine, this may result in a fire or electrical shock. If these items are dropped or spilled inside the machine, immediately turn OFF the power switches of the machine and computer and disconnect the interface cable if it is connected. Then, unplug the power plug from the AC power outlet and contact your local authorized Canon dealer.
When plugging or unplugging a USB cable when the power plug is plugged into an AC power outlet, do not touch the metal part of the connector, as this can result in electrical shock.

CAUTION
Do not place heavy objects on the machine. The object or the machine may fall, resulting in personal injury.
Turn OFF the power switch when the machine will not be used for a long period of time, such as overnight. Turn OFF the machine and unplug the power plug if the machine will not be used for an extended period of time, such as for several days.
Open or close covers and install or remove drawers gently and carefully. Be careful not to hurt your fingers.
Keep your hands and clothing away from the roller in the output area. Even if the machine is not printing, the roller may suddenly rotate and catch your hands or clothing, resulting in personal injury.
The output slot is hot during and immediately after printing. Do not touch the area surrounding the output slot, as this may result in burns.
Printed paper may be hot immediately after being output. Be careful when removing the paper and aligning the removed paper, especially after continuous printing. Failure to do so may result in burns.
When performing copy with a thick book placed on the platen glass, do not press the feeder forcefully. This may damage the platen glass and cause personal injury.
Be careful not to drop a heavy object, such as a dictionary, on the platen glass. This may damage the platen glass and cause personal injury.
Close the feeder gently so as not to catch your hand. This may result in personal injury.
The laser beam can be harmful to the human body. The laser beam is confined in the laser scanner unit by a cover, so there is no danger of the laser beam escaping during normal machine operation. Read the following remarks and instructions for safety. Never open covers other than those indicated in this manual. Do not remove the caution label attached to the cover of the laser scanner unit. If the laser beam should escape and enter your eyes, exposure may cause damage to your eyes. If you operate this machine in manners other than the control, adjustment, and operating procedures prescribed in this manual, this may result in hazardous radiation exposure. This machine is confirmed as the class 1 laser product in IEC60825-1:2007.
