• Take an appropriate wipe or moisten the cloth with cleaner and wipe

the 

image plate surface

 softly and evenly.

• Leave the 

image plate surface

 to dry for about 10 minutes to allow

the solvents to evaporate.

• Use only a dry cloth or blow away possible dust with compressed air

(canned air), to clean the 

tray

 thoroughly. (DO NOT USE A SCREEN

CLEANER TO CLEAN THE TRAY.)

• Once the image plate surface is dry (after about 10 minutes), check

once again for particles of material and other impurities before placing

the tray and image plate set into the cassette.

7.

Put the tray with the image plate back into the cassette.
Verify that the white phosphor side is oriented to the black tube side of the

cassette and that the shutter does not scratch the image plate.

1.

White phosphor side

2.

Black tube side of the cassette

Warning

: Make sure to slide in the image plate carefully.

Do not let the plate fall down vertically into the cassette!

This causes damages of the phosphor.

8.

When the black tray with the image plate is completely inside the cassette,

close the shutter.
To close the shutter easily, insert a key or a pen into the cassette lock while

closing the shutter. Once closed, remove the key or the pen.
