• A strong and level base.
• The machine must be level within 5 mm, 0.2" both front to rear and left to
right.
• To avoid possible build-up of ozone, make sure to locate this machine in a
large well ventilated room that has an air turnover of more than 30 m 3 /hr/
person.
Environments to avoid
• Locations exposed to direct sunlight or strong light (more than 1,500 lux).
• Locations directly exposed to cool air from an air conditioner or heated air
from a heater. (Sudden temperature changes might cause condensation with-
in the machine.)
• Places where the machine might be subjected to frequent strong vibration.
• Dusty areas.
• Areas with corrosive gases.
• Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. A fire or an elec-
tric shock might occur.
• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it top-
ples over, it could cause injury.
• If you use the machine in a confined space, make sure there is a
continuous air turnover.
