Cleaning the ADF (with cloth)
The ADF can be cleaned with a piece of cloth moistened with
Cleaner F1, or a sheet of Cleaning Wipe.
As the scanner continues to feed the documents, paper dust
will accumulate inside the ADF and it may cause scanning
errors.
Cleaning should be performed approximately every 5,000
sheets scanned. Note that this guideline varies depending on
the types of documents you scan. For instance, it may be
necessary to clean the scanner more frequently when you
scan documents on which the toner is not sufficiently fused.
1
Turn off the scanner and wait for at least 15 minutes.
For details, refer to
"1.3 Turning the Power ON/OFF" (page 25)

It may take a long time to dry if an excessive amount of Cleaner F1 is
used. Use it in small quantity. Wipe off the cleaner completely to
leave no residue on the cleaned parts.
When opening, the ADF might close
accidentally. Be careful not to have your
fingers caught when the ADF closes.
