Safety Warnings and Precautions
128 Kiaro! 200 User Guide
• Never block the ventilation ports on the printer. A blocked ventilation port could
cause heat to build up inside the printer and cause a fire. Also, place the printer in
an area where you can disconnect the power cord immediately; keep the area
around the power cord connection free of obstacles. This allows you to unplug the
power cord quickly in an emergency.
Power Supply and Power Cord
Warning
• To avoid causing a fire or serious electrical shock, always use the power cord
provided with this printer. To avoid a fire or electrical shock, do not use an
extension cord.
• To avoid a fire or serious electrical shock, connect the printer power cord to an
independent power source that is not shared by other equipment or appliances.
• To avoid causing a fire or serious electrical shock, make sure that the power plug
is securely and completely inserted into the power source.
• Do not cut, damage, or otherwise alter the power cord. To avoid the dangers of fire
and electrical shock, never place a heavy object on the power cord, never expose it
to heat, and never pull on the cord to disconnect it. If the power cord is damaged
in any way (condensation on exposed wires, broken wires, etc.) contact the dealer
where you purchased the printer or the nearest service center for a replacement.
• To avoid personal injury from an electrical shock, never handle the power cord or
plug when your hands are wet.
• To avoid a fire or serious electrical shock, never knot the power cord or wrap it
around itself.
• Disconnect the printer power cord during severe electrical storms. Lightning could
cause a fire or severe electrical shock or damage to the printer.
• To avoid a fire hazard, occasionally disconnect the power cord from the printer
and the power supply and use a soft dry cloth to clean the cord connectors and the
connection points. Leaving the cord plugged in and not cleaned for a long period,
especially in an area subject to dust, oil, and high humidity, could cause the
insulation material to deteriorate.
Caution
• Be sure to turn off the printer before removing the power plug from the outlet.
• Check the power plug and cord for any problem (abnormal heat, rust, bend,
cracks, scratches, etc.) at least once a month.
• If any problem with the power plug or cord is found, replace it. Using it without
replacement can result in a fire or electrical shock hazard.
• To avoid damaging the power plug, which could cause a short circuit and cause a
fire or electrical shock, never pull on the power cord to unplug the cord from the
power supply. Always grip the plug to remove it from the power supply.
