• Do not leave any rubber or vinyl on the machine for an extended period of time, oth-
erwise the machine may be stained.
• Do not touch the print head mechanism. If the head is touched, clean it immediately
with a soft wipe (e.g. a cotton swab) to avoid permanent damage.
• To avoid injuries, do not touch the cutter's edge.
• Use only the AC adapter designed exclusively for this machine. Use of any oth-
er adapter may void the warranty.
