Safety instructions
Ÿ Please read all warning notices and instructions and follow
them precisely.
Ÿ Never connect the telephone in damp rooms unless the wall
sockets are specially designed for humid conditions. Never
touch the power plug, connection to the mains or telephone
socket with wet hands.
Ÿ Never touch uninsulated or telephone or power cables with
damaged insulation, unless the telephone cable is discon-
nected from the telephone line and/or the power cable is
disconnected from the power line.
Ÿ Never install the fax machine close to radiators or air
conditioners. Avoid operating the fax machine in direct
sunlight.
Ÿ Place the fax machine on a flat surface and ensure a
minimum clearance of 10 cm between the fax machine
and other machines and objects.
Ÿ Make sure that your fax machine is stable and rests
squarely on the supporting surface. Any fall can cause
severe damage to the fax machine and/or injury to people,
especially small children.
Ÿ Make sure that air circulates freely around the fax machine.
Do not operate the fax machine in closed boxes, cup-
boards, cabinets etc. Leave a clear space of 10 cm around
the ventilation grilles of the fax machine. Never cover the
fax machine (tablecloths, paper, folders etc.). Do not place
the fax machine on beds, tablecloths, cushions, sofas,
carpets or other soft underlays due to the danger of
overheating and subsequent fire.
Ÿ Ensure safe cable laying (danger of stumbling, damage to
the cable or the fax machine).
Ÿ Disconnect the fax machine from the mains and telephone
line before cleaning the surface of the machine.
Ÿ Never use liquid or gaseous cleaning agents (sprays, scouring
agents, polishes etc.).
Ÿ Do not allow any liquid to enter the fax machine. Otherwise
there is a risk of electric shock or other injury to people and
severe damage to the fax machine. If any liquid does enter
the fax machine, immediately remove the power plug and
have the fax machine professionally inspected.
Ÿ If the display breaks, a mildly corrosive liquid may leak out.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Ÿ In case of any damage caused to the housing of your fax
machine in particular to power cables please remove the
mains plug and call your service repair centre. The housing
of your fax machine may only be opened by authorised
service personnel.
Ÿ Your fax machine has been tested in conformity with
standards EN 60950 and IEC 60950 respectively, and may
only be operated with telephone systems and power
equipment which meet these standards.
