SERVICE CALL CONDITIONS

4. TROUBLESHOOTING
4.1 SERVICE CALL CONDITIONS
4.1.1 SUMMARY
There are 2 levels of service call conditions.
Level Definition To prevent the machine from being damaged, the SC can only be reset by a service representative. The copier cannot be operated at all. The SC can be reset by turning the main power switch off and on. Reset Procedure Enter SP 5-810 (SC code reset) and select "1". Then hold down the Original type key and the OK or ! key at the same time (this does not require the main switch to be turned off and on). Turn the main power switch off and on.
