Laser safety

For Europe/Asia

This machine is considered a class 1 laser device, safe for office/EDP use. The machine contains 1 class 3B laser

diode, 10.72 milliwatt, 760-780 nanometer wavelength for each emitter.

Direct (or indirect reflected ) eye contact with the laser beam might cause serious eye damage. Safety precautions and

interlock mechanisms have been designed to prevent any possible laser beam exposure to the operator.

The following label is attached on the rear side of the machine.

Repairs-maintenance: Repairs and maintenance should only be carried out by a

qualified technician. No user serviceable parts inside the machine. To reduce the risk

of electrical shock, you shall not proceed with these operations yourself, because by

opening or removing the lids, you could expose yourself to two hazards:

- The laser beam can cause irreversible eye damage.

- Avoid contact with powered parts because it can lead to electrical shock with

unfortunate consequences.

CAUTION
