Important Safety Instructions
To ensure the safe operation of this scanner, be sure to read the safety warnings and precautions described below.
❏
Installation Location
The performance of this scanner is affected by the
environment in which it is installed. Make sure that the
location where the scanner is installed meets the following
environmental requirements.
●
Provide adequate space around the scanner for
operation, maintenance, and ventilation.
●
Avoid installing the machine in direct sunlight. If
this is unavoidable, use curtains to shade the
scanner.
●
Avoid locations where a considerable amount of
dust accumulates.
●
Avoid warm or humid locations, such as in the
vicinity of a water faucet, water heater, or
humidifier, and avoid locations where the fumes
from ammonia, paint thinner, or other volatile
chemicals may be present.
●
Avoid locations that are subject to vibration.
●
Avoid exposing the scanner to rapid changes in
temperature. If the room in which the scanner is
installed is cold but rapidly heated, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the scanner. This
may result in a noticeable degradation in scanning
quality.
The following conditions are recommended for
optimal scanning quality:
Room temperature: 10 °C to 32.5 °C (50 °F to
90.5 °F)
Humidity: 20% to 80% RH
●
Avoid installing the scanner near equipment that
generates a magnetic field (e.g. speakers,
televisions, or radios).
❏
Power
●
Connect only to a power outlet of the rated voltage
and power supply frequency (either 120 V, 60 Hz
or 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz, depending on your
region).
●
Do not connect other electrical equipment to the
same power outlet to which the scanner is
connected. Also, when using an extension cord,
make sure that the extension cord is rated for the
current requirements of the scanner.
●
Never try to disassemble the AC adapter or modify
it in any way, as this is extremely dangerous.
●
The power cord and AC adapter may become
damaged if they are often stepped on or if heavy
objects are placed on them. Continued use of a
damaged power cord and AC adapter can lead to
an accident, such as a fire or electrical shock.
●
Do not use the power cord while it is coiled.
