Caution
To prevent the possibility of injury, you must observe the following:
• Do not wear jewelry such as rings or watches, etc. when clearing jammed paper.
• Before removing jammed paper, open the appropriate flaps and affix them in the
position in the top notches. The green release knob must be flush with the plate.
• Sharp edges of paper can cause cuts.
Do not touch the edges of the paper. If you have to do so, exercise extreme
caution. Do not slide hands or fingers along the edges.
• Frequent paper jams are a sign that the paper is unsuitable. This can also lead to
increased wear and tear of the photoconductor drum and fuser station.
• Never use hard objects to clear a paper jam. These may damage the paper
transport surfaces (with scratches etc.) and the damage will, in turn, increase the
risk of further paper jams.
