General Precautions - Brother PDS-5000 Quick Start Manual

Product Safety Guide
DO NOT place the unit near chemicals or in a
place where chemical spillage could occur. In
particular, organic solvents or liquids may cause
the casing and/or cables to melt or dissolve,
risking fire or electric shock. They may also cause
the unit to malfunction or become discoloured.
Slots and openings in the casing, back or bottom
of the product are provided for ventilation. The
product should be placed so as not to come into
contact with any wall or other device so these
openings are not blocked or covered. Blocking the
unit's ventilation could create a risk of overheating
and/or fire.
IMPORTANT
• Always place the unit on a solid surface, never
on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar soft surfaces.
• DO NOT place the unit in a "built-in" installation.
CAUTION
Make sure that no part of the unit protrudes from
the desk or stand where the unit is located. Make
sure that the unit is located on a flat, level, and
stable surface free from vibration. Failure to
observe these precautions could cause the unit to
fall, causing injury.
DO NOT place the unit on an unstable or tilted
cart, stand, or table, or on any tilted/slanted
surface. The machine may fall, causing injury to
you and serious damage to the unit.
IMPORTANT
• DO NOT put objects on top of the unit.
• DO NOT place the unit next to sources of
interference, such as speakers or the base
units of non-Brother cordless telephones.
Doing so may interfere with the operation of the
unit's electronic components.
• Always open the top cover and output tray fully.
Failure to do so may cause a risk of damage to
the document.

General precautions

WARNING
Plastic bags are used in the packing of the unit. To
avoid danger of suffocation, keep these plastic
bags away from babies and children. Plastic bags
are not toys.
Never insert any objects into the slots in the
machine's casing, since they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts
resulting in the risk of fire or electric shock. If metal
objects, water or other liquids get inside the
machine, immediately unplug the unit from the
electrical socket. Contact your Brother dealer or
Brother Customer Service.
DO NOT use flammable substances, any type of
spray, or an organic solvent/liquid that contains
alcohol or ammonia to clean the inside or outside
of the unit. Doing this may cause a fire or electrical
shock.
DO NOT disassemble or modify the unit,
otherwise fire or electric shock may result. If the
unit requires repair, contact your Brother dealer or
Brother Customer Service.
