Where to Put Your Copier
Your copier should be installed by a qualified technician. If you need to trans-
port your copier to a distant location, call your service center before the move.
You can of course move your copier around your office without calling the serv-
ice center. If you do, remember that the temperature, humidity, and cleanliness
of the area around the copier may affect its performance. Choose the new loca-
tion with care and follow the guidelines below.
Machine Environment
Your machine's location should be carefully chosen because environmental con-
ditions greatly affect its performance.
Optimal Environmental Conditions

CAUTION:
R
CAUTION:
• Temperature: 50° to 86°F (15° to 30°C)
• Humidity: 20 to 80% RH
• To avoid possible ozone build-up make sure to install this copier in a large,
well ventilated room ensuring an air turnover of at least 1000 ft 3 /hour/per-
son (30 m 3 ). When you use this machine for a long time in a confined space
without good ventilation, you may notice an odd smell. To keep the work-
space comfortable, we recommend that you keep it well ventilated.
• Set your copier on a strong and level base. The copier must be level within a
quarter of an inch (5 mm) left to right and half an inch (10 mm) front to rear.
Environments to Avoid
• Locations exposed to direct sunlight or strong light (more than 1500 lux)
• Dusty areas
• Areas with corrosive gasses
• Altitudes of over 6500 feet (2000 m)
• 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.
