Precautions for Power and Grounded/Earthed Connections

Use the printer within the specified power range.

AC power:100-127 V AC ± 10% (90 V-140 V) or 220-240 V AC ± 10% (198 V-264 V)

Frequency:50 ± 3Hz/60 ± 3Hz

Ensure that the AC power cord connector and AC power outlet/socket are free of dust. In a
damp environment, a contaminated connector can, over time, draw non-negligible amounts
of current that can generate heat and eventually cause fire.

Do not attempt to modify, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the AC power cord. Do
not place objects on the AC power cord. A damaged AC power cord can cause fire or
electric shock.

Never touch the AC power cord with wet hands. This constitutes an electric shock hazard.

In the following situations, stop using the printer immediately, turn it off, and disconnect the
AC power cord from the AC power outlet/socket. After that, call your dealer or Brother
Customer Service immediately. Continued use of the printer in such situations could result
in fire:

There is smoke emanating from the printer or the outside of the printer is excessively hot.

Unusual noises are coming from the printer.

There is water inside the printer.

To prevent fire or electric shocks, connect the AC power cord to a grounded/earthed AC
power outlet/socket. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding/earthing
of the power, call a qualified electrician.

If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, stop using the printer
immediately, turn it off, and disconnect the AC power cord from the AC power outlet/socket.
After that, call your dealer or Brother Customer Service. Using a damaged cord can cause
fire or an electric shock.
