Immediately turn the printer power off, and carefully but quickly remove the battery, then contact our service agent. z If any foreign matter (metal tip, water, liquid) enters the product, immediately turn the printer power OFF, and carefully but quickly remove the battery, then contact our service agent. Ignoring this instruction may result in a fire. CAUTION z Do not place the printer on a shaky table or other unbalanced place. The printer may drop or fall resulting in injury. z Avoid using or storing in the following place. Damage to printer may be caused. • In a car parked in a sunny place, a place exposed to direct sunlight, near heat generating equipment, or the like. • A place where temperature or humidity is excessively high or low, or its change is radical. • A dusty place. • A place likely to get a splash of water or liquid. z Avoid dropping, impacting or vibrating the printer otherwise damage may be caused. z Avoid entry of foreign material. Otherwise, fault may occur. z Do not use volatile liquid (thinner, benzine, etc.) or wet cloth when cleaning the printer. Deterioration or discoloration may occur. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. z Do not move the printer or give any shock or vibration to it while the printer is in operation or in standby operation. The printer power may be disconnected and the print data may be lost. 6 Precautions on Using Printer WARNING z Do not touch the print head or paper cutter while replacing print paper. Heated print head may cause burn. The cutter may cause injury to the hand. CAUTION z Use of print paper other than specified may result in not only deteriorated print quality but shortened life of print head (printing portion). z Do not tap or rub the print head with edged or hard material. z When condensation is present on the print head, dry it completely before printing. Printing with condensation may damage the print head. Precaution on Overheating CAUTION z To prevent the motor from overheating, continuous printing (or feeding) of the printer should be 1.5 m or less in print length. After printing for this distance we recommend a pause of at least 30 seconds for cooling. 7 Precautions on Using Battery DANGER Leaked liquid from the battery may result in loss of eyesight if z it enters the eye. Immediately wash eyes with fresh water and get medical care. If liquid from the battery is ingested, immediately seek z medical attention. Keep the following in mind when handling battery. z Otherwise, liquid leakage, heat generation, and explosion may result. • Do not throw battery into fire or do not apply heat. • Do not peel or scratch the external battery casing. • Soldering is prohibited. • Do not give strong shock to battery or throw it away. • Do not short-circuit the positive and negative terminals with a metal such as metal wire. Never disassemble or modify battery. Otherwise, liquid z leakage, heat generation, or explosion may occur. WARNING z If battery liquid attaches to skin or cloth, immediately wash it out with fresh water. Otherwise, skin disorder may be caused. CAUTION z Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. z Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. z Use only the approved external charger or charge the battery within the printer. z Never use another charger or one that looks to be similar. 8 CAUTION z Do not dip battery in water or sea water. Wet battery may generate heat or may be subject to corrosion. z Do not use or leave battery at high temperature. Using or leaving battery in a place of high temperature may result in liquid leakage, deteriorated performance, or shortened lifetime. z Keep battery beyond the reach of a baby or child. Pay attention not to let a child take out the battery. z If the battery is used for the first time, be sure to charge it completely before use. z If any abnormality is found while the battery is in use, stop the operation and carry the battery in local sales agent. z The battery in the printer is shipped partially charged. Please fully charge the battery prior to using the printer. Precautions on Installing New Paper CAUTION z Before printing, confirm that print paper is set straight forward at the exit from the print (thermal) head. Skewed setting may result in paper jamming. z To prevent skewed insertion of paper, use the following form for the end of paper. OK NG NG NG 9 Precautions on Using Thermal Paper CAUTION z Print density may change with different kinds of paper. z Observe the following when using thermal paper. Thermal paper is not resistant to discoloration, deterioration in quality, and thin printing. • Do not leave printed thermal paper exposed to light for a long time. • Avoid exposure to high temperature, humidity, liquid, or sunlight. • When keeping the printer thermal paper on a board, do not use paste, adhesive, or adhesive tape containing volatile organic solvent. • For long-time storage, use thermal paper of high storage type or copy it with plain paper copier. • Avoid contact with a film of vinyl chloride for a long time. • Avoid using ammonia. Do not put thermal paper near the paper copied by use of ammonia. • Avoid putting sweat or grease from your hands on the surface (printed or to be printed) of thermal paper. • Store thermal paper in a dark place with average temperature below 25°C and relative humidity below 65% . z Using print paper with a thickness outside the recommended range may cause improper print quality. 10 Precautions on Using Special Serial Cable WARNING z With one side of the connector connected to this product, do not touch the metal part of the other connector. CAUTION Static electricity may cause breakdown of internal circuit of z this product. Do not leave this product with a cable wound around it for a z long time.
