Turning the machine on

WARNING

• Use only regular household electricity for the power source. Using other power sources may result in fire, electric shock, or damage to the machine.
• Do not touch the plug with wet hands. Electric shock may result.
• Make sure that the plugs on the power cord are firmly inserted into the electrical outlet and the power cord receptacle on the machine. Otherwise, a fire or electric shock may result.
• Turn the main power to OFF and remove the plug in the following circumstances:
  • When you are away from the machine
  • After using the machine
  • When the power fails during use
  • When the machine does not operate correctly due to a bad connection or a disconnection
  • During electrical storms

CAUTION

• Use only the power cord included with this machine. Otherwise, a fire or electric shock may result.
• Do not use extension cords or multi-plug adapters with any other appliances plugged into them. Fire or electric shock may result.
• When unplugging the machine, always turn the main power to OFF first. Always grasp the plug to remove it from the electrical outlet. Pulling on the cord may damage the cord, or lead to fire or electric shock.
• Do not allow the power cord to be cut, damaged, modified, forcefully bent, pulled, twisted, or bundled. Do not place heavy objects on the cord. Do not subject the cord to heat. These things may damage the cord, or cause fire or electric shock. If the cord or plug is damaged, take the machine to your authorized Brother dealer for repairs before continuing use.
• Do not insert the plug on the power cord into an electrical outlet that is in poor condition.
• (For U.S.A. only)
  This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized electrical outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the electrical outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper electrical outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.

1. Make sure that the machine is turned off (the main power switch on the back of the machine is set to “O”), and then plug the power cord into the power supply jack under the main power switch.
