• Try to avoid locations that have the following adverse conditions:
* Temperatures out of the specification * Direct sunlight * High humidity
* Shared power source * Excessive vibration * Dust/Gas
• Do not subject the machine to sudden shocks.
• Do not press the keys too hard. Keys will operate correctly if they are touched lightly.

• Keep your work environment static free.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of the machines, as these items may become unbalanced and fall causing
injury.

Request Regarding Maintenance
• Utilize our maintenance services.
After purchasing the machine, contact your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance once a
year to have the inside of the machine cleaned. Otherwise, dust will build up inside the machines and may
cause a fire or a malfunction. Cleaning is particularly effective before humid rainy seasons.

quality and performance of the machines, preventing accidents beforehand.
For details, please consult your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance.
