Turning off the main power

CAUTION


  • When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord. Pulling the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire or electric shock.

Important

  • Do not turn off the power while the machine is in operation.

  • Do not hold down the main power switch while turning off the main power. Doing so forcibly turns off the machine's power and may damage the hard disk or memory and cause malfunctions.

1Open the main power switch cover, and then push the main power switch.

The main power indicator goes out. The main power turns off automatically when the machine shuts down. If the screen on the control panel does not disappear, contact your service representative.

Note

  • When the main power switch is turned off while using the fax function, waiting fax and print jobs may be cancelled, and incoming fax documents not received. If you have to turn off this switch for some reason, make sure 100% is shown as available memory on the screen before turning off the main power switch or unplugging the power cord. Fax files in memory are deleted an hour after you turn off the main power switch or unplug the power cord. If a file was deleted from memory, a Power Failure Report is automatically printed as soon as the power is restored. This report can be used to identify lost files. For details, see "Power Failure Report", Troubleshooting.
