Creality's teams are ready to provide the best services. Please contact us via the phone number or e-mail address provided at the end of this User Manual if you encounter any problems with the printer.

NOTES

  1. Do not use the printer in any way other than described herein to avoid personal injury or property damage.
  2. Do not place the printer near any heat source or flammable or explosive objects. We suggest placing it in a well-ventilated, cool, and dustless environment.
  3. Do not expose the printer to violent vibration or any other unstable environment, as this may cause poor print quality.
  4. Please use recommended filaments to avoid clogging of the extrusion head and causing damage to the machine.
  5. Do not use the power cable of other products during installation. Always use a grounded three-prong power outlet that accompanies the printer.
  6. Do not touch the nozzle and the heated bed during operation to avoid burns or personal injury.
  7. Do not wear gloves or wraps while operating the machine to prevent entrapment of movable parts that could cause crushing and cutting injuries to bodily parts.
  8. Use the provided tools to clean the filament from the extruder in time, taking advantage of the residual temperature after printing. Do not touch the extruder directly when cleaning, otherwise it may cause burns.
  9. Clean the printer frequently. Clean the printer body with a dry cloth regularly after powering off the printer. Wipe away dust, bonded print filament, and foreign objects on the guide rails.
  10. Children under 10 years old should not use the printer without supervision, otherwise it may cause personal injury.
  11. Users should comply with the laws and regulations of the corresponding countries and regions where the equipment is located (used), abide by professional ethics, pay attention to safety obligations, and strictly prohibit the use of our products or equipment for any illegal purposes. Creality will not be responsible for any violators' legal liability under any circumstance.
  12. Tip: Do not plug in or unplug wires on a charged basis.
