Please note: The fax machine is not compatible with digital telephone systems. The fax machine is not designed for use on a line which has call waiting, call forwarding, or certain other special services offered by your telephone company. If you attempt to use the fax machine in conjunction with any of these services, you may experience errors during transmission and reception of facsimile messages.
Important safety information
Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not described in this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine. Unplug the machine from the telephone socket and then the power outlet and consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur: - Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been exposed to rain or water. - The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises. - The power cord is frayed or damaged. - The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine where people may walk on the power cord. This machine must only be connected to a 220 - 240 V, 50/60 Hz, earthed outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine and invalidate the warranty. Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that you cannot remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service representative. Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine could be seriously damaged if it falls. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. Never install telephone sockets in wet locations unless the socket is specifically designed for wet locations. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. The power outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.

1. Installation

Unpacking Checklist
Before setting up, make sure you have all of the following items. If any are missing, contact your dealer or retailer.

Handset

Original document support

Handset cord

Operation manual

Fax paper (Sample roll)

Paper roll shims

Telephone line cord

Points to keep in mind when setting up
Do not place the machine in direct sunlight.
Do not place the machine near heaters or air conditioners.
Keep dust away from the machine.
Keep the area around the machine clear.
About condensation If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that condensation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper scanning of documents for transmission. To remove the condensation, turn on the power and wait approximately two hours before using the machine.

Connecting the power cord
Plug the power cord into a 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz, earthed AC outlet.

Caution:

Do not plug the power cord into any other kind of outlet. This will damage the machine and is not covered under the warranty. The machine does not have a power on/off switch, so the power is turned on and off by simply plugging in or unplugging the power cord.
Moving your fax and reconnecting If it is necessary to move your fax to a new location, first disconnect the telephone line cord before disconnecting the power cord. When reconnecting, it is necessary to connect the power cord before connecting the telephone line cord.

Replacing the thermal paper
When the paper runs out, OUT OF PAPER will appear in the display. Reception and copying will no longer be possible. To replace the paper, first take out the old roll, then load the new roll as described above. To assure a long life for your fax and obtain the best reproduction quality, we recommend that you use the following Sharp thermal paper, which is available from your dealer or retailer: FO-20PR THERMAL PAPER (30 m roll) The use of any other paper may result in poor copy quality and excessive build-up of residue on the head.

Handling thermal paper

Do not unpack the paper until you are ready to use it. It may become discoloured if:
It is stored at high humidity or high temperature. It is exposed to direct sunlight. It comes in contact with glue, thinner, or a freshly copied blueprint. A rubber eraser or adhesive tape is used on it, or it is scratched.

When the reception mode is set to TEL/FAX, your fax machine automatically answers all calls on two rings. After answering, your fax monitors the line for about five seconds to see if a fax tone is being sent.
If your fax machine detects a fax tone (this means that the call is an
automatically dialled fax), it will automatically begin reception of the incoming document.
If your fax machine doesn't detect a fax tone (this means that the call is a
voice call or manually dialled fax), it will make a ringing sound (called pseudo ringing) for 30 seconds to alert you to answer. If you don't answer within this time, your fax will send a fax tone to the other machine to allow the calling party to send a fax manually if they desire. Note: Only the fax will alert you to voice calls or manually dialled faxes by pseudo ringing. An extension phone connected to the same line will not ring after the connection has been established.
