Caution: • If paper is jammed in a hard to reach or hard to see location in the printer, do not try to remove it by force. Contact your dealer or an authorized service station. • When removing jammed paper, make sure that no paper scraps or paper dust remain in the printer. Paper remnants in the printer can become a fire hazard. If paper cannot be removed or is tightly wound around the heater or a roller, do not try to remove it by force. Contact your dealer or an authorized service station. Important: Remove jammed paper slowly and carefully, to prevent tearing the paper. Handling Precautions Caution: Never touch the heater area (where a label indicating high temperature is located), or else burns may result. If paper is jammed at the heater or roller area, do not remove the paper by force; otherwise personal injury may result. Instead, immediately turn off the power and contact your local dealer for assistance. 4-10 Saja Operation Manual 10/12/00 Chapter4.fm Saja Operation Manual 10/12/00 Troubleshooting 4-11
