3Use compressed air to remove dust and paper particles from the inside of the scanner.

CAUTION

Do not spray water or neutral detergent directly on the scanner. Precision mechanisms, such as the light source, may get wet, and cause a malfunction.

IMPORTANT

Scratches on the sensor glass may cause marks on the images, as well as feeding errors. If there are scratches on the sensor glass, contact your local authorized Canon dealer or service representative.
