3-1 Regular Maintenance
Clean the scanner on a regular basis as described below to maintain peak
scanning quality.
CAUTION
• When cleaning the scanner, turn OFF the power switch and
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet.
• Do not use excessive force when removing or attaching the
rollers. Doing so may damage them.
• Do not use spray type cleaners to clean the scanner.
Precision mechanisms, such as the light source, may get wet,
and cause a malfunction.
• Never use paint thinner, alcohol, or other organic solvents to
clean the scanner. Such solvents can damage or discolor the
exterior of the scanner, or create a risk of fire or electrical
shock.
Cleaning the Scanner
To clean the exterior of the scanner, dampen a cloth with water or a mild
detergent, wring the cloth out thoroughly, and then wipe the dirt away. Then
use a dry, soft cloth to wipe away any moisture.
