Warning message
Pay attention so that your fingers, hairs, etc. may not be withdrawn into the moving parts such as gear, belt, etc. to avoid a risk of injury.
When replacing the paper, be careful not to jam your fingers with the paper cover or not to touch the paper cutter. There is a risk of personal injury due clipping or contact with the cutter blade.
Surely turn off the printer power and check that the printer head is sufficiently cooled down before cleaning: Hot printer head may cause a burn.
The printer generates heat when in operation. Accordingly, pay special consideration to the radiation of heat in the mounting design because it may cause a burn.
Since the motor gets a high temperature during its operation, do not touch it directly. Since heat is not radiated immediately after the motor is stopped, touching it at this stage may cause a burn.
Since the printer head and its support plate get a high temperature during printing, do not touch them directly. Since heat is not radiated immediately after the printer is stopped, touching it at this stage may cause a burn.
Do not use a voltage other than the specified voltage of power supply to avoid the risk of fire or electric shock.
Do not put a metal or flammable substance in the inside of the aperture (for insertion or ejection of paper) to avoid fire or electric shock.
Do not place the product at a highly humid or dusty place, poorly ventilated place, fire-hazardous place, or a place where temperature becomes excessively high. There is a risk of fire or electric shock.
Do not use the product with wet hand. Avoid spill of liquid such as drinks, dropping of foreign substance such as clips to avoid the risk of fire or electric shock.
Surely turn off the printer power before replacing the paper, changing battery and connecting or removing AC adapter. This is to avoid the risk of electric shock.
If by any chance the product drops, or it emits heat, smoke, unusual smell, or abnormal sound, immediately turn off the power of the product, and then contact your sales agent (or the maintenance service center).

■ Precautions on the Handling of AC Adapter
Do not remove, disassemble, repair or remodel the cover. Such action may cause electric shock.
Use inlet power within specified range of voltage and frequency and outlet power within the specified range of voltage and current.
Otherwise, it may cause a fire or electric shock.
Do not use at an ambient temperature exceeding the specified one. It may cause a fire or electric shock.
Protect against dew formation because of water or moisture. It may cause a fire or electric shock.
Do not use at places exposed to excessive humidity, oily smoke or dust or in the environment with corrosive gases. It may cause a fire or electric shock.
If you notice power failure or other abnormalities during the use, stop the use immediately. In the case of AC adapter, unplug the power cord.
A fire or electric shock may be caused. Do not fail to contact our sales representatives.
Do not cover or wrap AC adapter and battery charger with cloth, quilting etc. It may accumulate the heat, deform the casing and cause a fire.
Do not connect or disconnect the power plug with wet hand. It may cause a fire or electric shock.
Do not bend, pull or damage forcibly the power cord and AC plug cord.
It may cause a fire or electric shock.

■ Prohibitions/Precautions on Battery Handling
Disassembly of battery pack and battery
Never disassemble the battery pack and battery. Disassembling the battery pack may destroy internal circuits leading to inoperable safety system for charging and discharging that generates heat, fire, or destruction. Also, disassembling the battery may generate gasses that bite the throat or cause the negative electrode to generate heat leading to fire
Externally shorting battery pack and battery
Never short the battery pack and battery. External shorting may generate heat or fire or cause destruction.
Throwing battery pack and battery into fire
Throwing the battery pack and battery may cause fire or destruction.
Throwing battery pack and battery into water
Throwing the battery pack into water may destroy internal circuits leading to inoperable safety system for charging and discharging that generates heat, fire, or destruction. Also, the battery generates oxygen and hydrogen by electrolysis, and concurrently the sealing portion may be corroded causing leaked liquid.
Soldering and heating up battery pack and battery
Do not solder a battery pack terminal. Soldering may cause melted case by generated heat or destruction of internal circuits, leading to inoperable safety system that generates heat, fire, or destruction.
Heating the battery up to 100
°C or higher may damage resin parts such as gaskets or the separator leading to leaked liquid, or internal shorts may lead to generated heat, fire, or destruction.
Charging outside this device(outside dedicated adapter)
Charge by a current larger than specified, overcharge, or reverse charge may occur. In this case, the inside of the battery may generate gasses rapidly causing fire or explosion. Charging outside this device may cause heat, fire, or destruction
Use for another purpose
Do not use the battery pack and battery for another device or purpose.
A difference of the specifications may damage the battery or the device.
Deformation
If the applied pressure has deformed the battery pack and battery, the sealing position may deform leading to leaked liquid, or internal shorts may cause heat, fire, or destruction.

1. Precautions in the Use
(1) Use the printer keeping it horizontally or vertically as practically as possible.
(2) Avoid the use of Product at a place exposed to direct sunlight; in high temperature, low temperature or highly humid atmosphere; or in the environment with much garbage and dust.
(3) Separate the AC line from other noise emitting equipment (large size motor, etc.)
(4) Use the Printer after checking that the recording paper is sufficiently installed.
(5) Be careful to avoid the sticking or entering of foreign substances around the printing head.
(6) Turn off the power before connecting the interface cable of the printer, replacing of battery, connecting and removal of the AC adaptor, etc.
(7) Never attempt to disassemble the Printer as it may cause malfunctions.
(8) Our AC adaptor and battery are for exclusive use for this Printer. Avoid the use of them for other products.
(9) For carrying this Printer, use belt fixtures exclusively made for this Printer.
(10) When exchanging the roll paper, be careful not to be clipped your hand at opening and closing of paper cover or not to touch the paper cutter.
(11) Do not peep into through IrDA communication window, especially while communication is being made.
(12) When not using for long period
・ When you do not expect to use for a long period of time, keep the recording paper inserted. If the printing head is kept in direct touch with platen for a long time, platen may stick to the head.
(13) Recording paper
・ Use paper roll with thermo-sensitive coating on the outside surface and set it so that the thermal side touches the printing head.
・ Set the paper properly along the paper guide. If the paper is inserted diagonally against the paper guide, it may cause improper feeding or paper jam. So, set the paper perfectly in parallel with the paper guide.
・ If the paper not specified is used, quality of printing may not be guaranteed and may cause malfunction.
・ Thermal paper does not withstand high temperature and high humidity.
Especially, if the temperature rises over 60℃, it starts being colored. Pay sufficient care for its storage.

・ Press the power switch on.
・ Press the power switch on.
・ Check the recording paper setting (Refer to page 22)
・ Recharge the battery.
・ Release the error mode. (Refer to page 26)
・ Close the paper holder cover properly.
・ Either reduce the distance or communication too far apart or the angle too big?
・ Isn’t the IrDA window too much soiled?
・ Is the dip switch setting correct?
・ Aren’t you communicating
Printing too dim under the direct sunlight?
・ Isn’t the thermal head stained?
・ Are the selection of paper and energy setting correct?
Recharging time ・ Isn’t the ambient temperature is too long too low?
Recharging time ・ Is the same symptom is too short repeated? (Red lamp is lighted when used after recharging) adjust the angle.
・ Clean the window. (Refer to page 36)
・ Check the dip switch setting.
(Refer to page 28)
