With your P-touch E100, you can create labels for multiple

applications. Select from the many character sizes and styles to

design professional looking custom labels. In addition, the

variety of tape cassettes available allows you to print labels with

different widths and industrial colours. Read this manual

carefully before you begin and keep the manual in a handy

place for future reference.

smoke.

• Always use the specified voltage and the recommended AC adapter

(AD-24ES) to prevent any damage or failure.

• Do not touch the P-touch during a lightning storm.

• Do not use the P-touch/AC adapter in places of high humidity such as

bathrooms.

• Do not place heavy objects on, or damage the AC power cord or plug.

Do not forcibly bend or pull the AC power cord. Always hold the AC

adapter carefully when disconnecting from the power socket.

• Make sure that the plug is fully inserted in the power socket. Do not use

a socket that is loose.

• Do not allow the P-touch/AC adapter/power plug/batteries to get wet, for

• If battery fluid leaks and gets in to your eyes, immediately rinse your

eyes with a large amount of clean water and then seek medical attention.

Battery fluid may cause eye damage.

• Do not disassemble or modify the P-touch/AC adapter/batteries.

• Do not allow a metal object to contact both the plus and minus ends of a

• Disconnect the AC adapter or remove batteries immediately and stop

using the P-touch if you notice any abnormal odours, heat,

discolouration, deformation or anything unusual while using or storing it.

hands.

• Do not use a deformed or leaking battery or one with a damaged label.

There is a possibility of generating heat.
