9. Appendix A: Important Safety Instructions
Read all of these instructions and save them for later use. Follow all warnings and instructions
marked on the scanner.
A.
Do not place the scanner on an unstable surface, stand, cart or table. Serious damage can be caused
if the unit falls.
B.
When Cleaning: Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene or fluids that contain these chemicals. Do
not spray liquids directly onto the scanner glass-plate or anywhere else in the scanner.

cleaning
or replacing any
user-replaceable parts
, be sure to turn the scanner power off and
disconnect the power plug.
D.
The scanner should be operated from the power source type indicated on the marking label. If you are
unsure of the type of power available, consult your dealer or local power company.
E.
The scanner is intended for use on IT, TT and TN power distribution systems, and is equipped with a
three-wire grounding type plug. This plug will fit only into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety
feature which relies on building installation. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat or ignore the purpose of the grounding-type plug.
F.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate the scanner where persons will walk on
the cord.
G.
If an extension cord is used with the scanner, make sure that the total ampere ratings of the products
plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the extension card ampere rating. Make sure that the
total rating of all products plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes.
H.
Slots or openings in the cabinet at the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. This ensures reliable
operation of the product and protects it from overheating. These openings must never be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
soft surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This product
should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
I.
Never push objects of any kind into the scanner through cabinet slots since they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electrical shock. Avoid any possibility of
spilling liquid of any kind on the scanner.
J.
Do not attempt to service the scanner yourself. Opening or removing those covers requiring tools may
expose you to dangerous voltage points or other risks. Refer all servicing in those compartments to
authorized service personnel.
K.
Unplug the scanner from the wall outlet and refer servicing to authorized service personnel under the
following conditions:
When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
If liquid has been spilled into the scanner.
If the scanner has been exposed to rain or water.
If the scanner does not operate normally when operating instructions are followed then adjust only
those controls covered by the instructions in this manual. Improper adjustment of controls other
than those mentioned in this manual may result in permanent damage and will at best require
extensive work by a qualified technician to restore this product to its normal operation.
If the scanner has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
If the scanner exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
