2-8 Setting Up Chapter 2
Connecting the Power Cord
Before connecting the power cord, 1 Power Supply, p. 1-6.
Follow this procedure to connect the power cord:
The unit has no power switch, so its power is on as long as it is plugged in. Once
connected, though, the unit still needs to warm up before you can use it. Wait until the
LCD no longer displays PLEASE WAIT.

• Your unit is equipped with a three-prong, grounding-type plug provided with a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety
feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into your outlet, contact an electrician to
replace your outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug by
breaking off the third prong or using a 3-to-2 adaptor.*
• Do not plug the unit into the same circuit as an appliance such as an air conditioner,
electric typewriter, television, or copier. Such devices generate electrical noise that can
interfere with your unit’s ability to send and receive faxes.
