WARNING: The Fuser Assembly may be very hot and should be handled with care! Use the lifting handles on each end to avoid any contact with hot surfaces during removal or replacement. Avoid any contact with internal parts of the cartridge.

Damage to a work surface may result if a hot Fuser Assembly is removed and positioned on an unprotected surface. Place the assembly on a minimum of 10 sheets of paper.
