Routine Cleaning
If the original is not scanned clearly, clean the following parts. For high-quality outputs, we recom-
mend cleaning them once or twice a month.
• Platen glass
• Rear side of platen glass
• Feeder Scanning area
• White plate, Roller
WARNING
• When cleaning the machine, first turn OFF the main power switch and unplug the power plug. Fail-
ure to observe these items may result in a fire or electrical shock.
• Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner or other solvents for cleaning. Doing so might result in
plastic parts becoming deformed.
CAUTION
• Unplug the power plug from the outlet at least once a year, and clean the area around the base of
the plug’s metal pins to ensure all dust is removed. If dust accumulates in this area, it may result
in a fire.
• Do not dampen the cloth too much, as this may damage the original or break the machine.
Cleaning the Platen Glass/ Rear Side of Platen Glass
Clean the platen glass or the rear side of platen glass following the procedure below.
IMPORTANT
• If the platen glass or the rear side of platen glass is dirty, the original may not be scanned cleanly, or the
size of the original may be detected incorrectly.
■
Cleaning the Platen Glass
Clean the platen glass with a cloth dampened
with water, then wipe with a dry cloth.
