Maintenance and Inspections
•
When cleaning the machine, fi rst turn OFF the main
power switch, then disconnect the power cord.
Failure to observe these steps may result in a fi re or
electrical shock.
•
Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet
regularly, and clean the area around the base of
the power plug's metal pins and the power outlet
with a dry cloth to ensure that all dust and grime is
removed. If the power cord is connected for a long
period of time in a damp, dusty, or smoky location,
dust can build up around the power plug and
become damp. This may cause a short circuit and
result in a fi re.
•
Clean the machine using a slightly dampened cloth
with a mild detergent mixed with water. Do not use
alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other fl ammable
substances. Check detergent for fl ammability prior
to use. If fl ammable substances come into contact
with a high-voltage area inside the machine, it may
result in a fi re or electrical shock.
•
There are some areas inside the machine which are
subject to high-voltages. When removing jammed
paper or when inspecting the inside of the machine,
do not allow necklaces, bracelets, or other metal
objects to touch the inside of the machine, as this
may result in burns or electrical shock.
•
Do not burn or throw used toner cartridges into
open fl ames, as this may cause the toner remaining
inside the cartridges to ignite, resulting in burns or
a fi re.
•
Make sure that the power plug is fi rmly inserted
into the power outlet after cleaning the machine.
Do not use the machine while the connection is
loose, as doing so may cause a fi re.

the following conditions occur, contact your local
authorized Canon dealer, as the condition may
cause a fi re:
-
There are burn marks on the power plug.
-
The blade on the power plug is deformed or
broken.
-
The power goes OFF and ON when the power cord
is bent.
-
There are cuts, cracks, or indentations on the
power cord.
-
A part of the power cord becomes hot.
•
Check the power cord and power plug regularly
to make sure that they are not handled in the
following manner, as this may result in a fi re or
electrical shock:
-
The connection part of the power plug is loose.
-
Stress is being applied to the power cord by a
heavy object or by affi xing it with staples.
-
The power plug is loose.
