To prevent damage or breakage, do not press on the LCD display.

•

Do not put any foreign objects into or heavy objects on the machine.

•

Do not leave any rubber or vinyl on the machine for an extended period of time, otherwise

the machine may be stained.

•

Do not get the machine/AC adapter/power plug wet, such as by handling them with wet

hands or spilling beverages on to them.

•

Do not expose the machine/AC adapter to extremely high temperatures or high humidity.

Never leave them on the dashboard or in the back of your car, near heaters or other hot

appliances. Keep them out of both direct sunlight and rain.

•

Avoid using the machine in extremely dusty places.

•

Depending on the environmental conditions and the applied settings, some characters or

symbols may be difficult to read.

•

Do not pull on the tape being fed from the P-touch labeler, otherwise the tape cassette

or P-touch labeler may be damaged.

•

Do not attempt to cut the tape while printing or feeding since this will damage the tape.

•

Do not try to print labels using an empty tape cassette set in the P-touch labeler. Doing so

will damage the print head.

•

Remove the batteries and disconnect the AC adapter if you do not intend to use the machine

for an extended period of time. (Note: When power is disconnected for more than three

minutes, all text, format settings and any text files stored in the memory will be cleared.)

•

Do not use old and new batteries together or mix alkaline batteries with other type batteries, or set the

positive and negative end in the wrong position. Otherwise, the batteries may leak or be damaged.

•

Do not use metallic articles, such as tweezers or metallic pen, when changing the batteries.

•

Always use the specified voltage and the suggested AC adapter (MODEL-G1) for this

machine to prevent any damage or failure.

•

To prevent fire or electric shock, make sure that the plug of the AC adapter is fully inserted

into the power outlet. Do not use an outlet that is loose.

POWER SUPPLY

Batteries

Since this machine is compact and portable, it can be used anywhere by installing six AAA

alkaline batteries (LR03). When changing the batteries, always replace all six at the same time.

1 Press in on the rough area at the top end of the machine and

fold open the back cover.

2 If batteries are already installed, remove the tape cassette (if one is

installed) by pulling it straight out, and then remove the batteries.

3 Insert the batteries into the battery compartment with the

positive end of the bottom three batteries pointing toward the top

end of the machine, and the positive end of the top three

batteries pointing in the opposite direction.

Note: When replacing the batteries, insert the new ones within

three minutes of removing the old ones, otherwise all text

shown in the display and any text files stored in the

memory will be lost (unless the machine is plugged into

an outlet with the AC adapter).

4 Securely close the back cover, making sure that it snaps into place.

Optional AC adapter (Included in PT-1260VP)

The AC adapter allows you to use this machine wherever an electrical outlet is available.
