Replacing the Fuser

To avoid burns, do not replace the fuser immediately after printing, as the fuser gets very hot during this process.
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, always turn off the printer and disconnect the power cable from the grounded outlet before cleaning the printer or performing maintenance.
CAUTION: Before performing any of the following procedures, read and follow the safety instructions in your Owner's Manual.
