Maintenance and Inspection Precautions
Warning
Be sure to turn off the power and remove the power plug
from the power outlet before performing any cleaning
operations.
• Failure to do so may result in a
fi
re hazard or electric shock.
Moreover, there is a risk of injury if the scanner starts to move
during a cleaning operation.
Neutr
al
Detergent
To clean the scanner, use a cloth that has been
dampened with neutral detergent and then well wrung
out. Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol,
benzene or thinner to clean the scanner.
• A volatile solvent coming into contact with any of the internal
electrical components may result in a
fi
re hazard or electric shock.
Do not attempt to lubricate the scanner’s mechanisms.
• Such action may impair the scanner’s performance and cause the
scanner to malfunction or break down.
• Such action may cause a
fi
re hazard or electric shock due to a
short circuit or overheating.
Caution
At least once a year, remove the power plug from the power outlet and clean the
prongs and surrounding areas.
• A build-up of dust may result in a
fi
re hazard.
When cleaning or checking the inside of the scanner, make sure that metallic objects
such as a necklace or bracelet do not come into contact with any of the internal
components.
• Such actions may result in injuries or an electric shock.
When removing a document that has become jammed inside the scanner, take care
not to cut your
fi
ngers on the edges of the document.
• Such actions may result in injuries.
