its parts as there is a danger of fire, electrical shock or
damage to the laser. If the laser beam escapes, there
is a danger of it causing blindness.................................
• If the copier becomes excessively hot, smoke appears
from the copier, there is an odd smell, or any other
abnormal situation occurs, there is a danger of fire or
electrical shock. Turn the main switch OFF (O)
immediately, remove the power plug from the outlet
and contact your service representative. .....................
