Choosing a Location
Place your fax machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place
that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the fax machine near a telephone jack
and a standard, grounded power outlet. Choose a location where the temperature
remains between 50°F and 95°F (10°–35°C).
WARNING
■
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
■
We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to protect the
product against lightning storms.
■
Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed
for a wet location.
■
Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone
line has been disconnected at the network interface.
■
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
■
Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There
may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
■
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
■
For PLUG CABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet should be installed near the
equipment and should be easily accessible.
■
To reduce the risk of shock or fire, use only a No. 26 AWG or larger
telecommunications line cord.
Avoid placing your fax machine in a high-traffic area. Do not place near
heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals, or refrigerators. Do not expose the
fax machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust. Do not connect
your fax machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic
timers. Disruption of power can wipe out information in the fax machine’s
memory. Do not connect your fax machine to electrical outlets on the same
circuit as large appliances or other equipment that might disrupt the power
supply. Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of
cordless phones.
