2. Daily Cleaning

To maintain high-quality scanning, you should periodically clean the following:

•Main unit

•Flatbed (Platen glass)

•Pressure Board

•Feeder

CAUTION

•Before you clean the scanner, turn OFF the scanner and computer and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. Otherwise, an electrical shock may result.

•Never clean the scanner with any kind of organic solvent, such as alcohol, benzene, or paint thinner. It might cause a fire and electrical shock, or cause the exterior of the scanner to disfigure or discolor.

•Never spray detergent or water directly onto the flatbed (platen glass). Sprayed liquid can get inside the scanner and soil the light source and lens.

•Overuse of water and allowing the scanner to become too wet during cleaning can damage scanned documents and cause malfunction of the scanner.
