Warning for Use

Precautions

Warning

• The set of power cables provided with this machine is for use with this machine only, and cannot be used with other electri-

cal devices. Do not use any power cables other than the ones provided with the machine. Otherwise, it causes a fire and

the electric shock.

• Take care not to damage, break or work upon the power cable. If a heavy material is placed on the power cable, or if it is

heated or pulled, the power cable can break, thus resulting in fire or electric shocks.

• Use of the machine under an abnormal condition where it produces smoke or strange smell can result in fire or electric

shocks. If such an abnormality is found, be sure to turn off the power switch immediately and unplug the cable from the wall

outlet. Check first that the machine no longer produces smoke, and then contact your distributor or a sales office of MIMAKI
