WARNING

Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Doing so might cause electric shock.

A damaged AC cable may cause fire or electric shock.

Do not place heavy objects on AC cables, or pull, bend, twist, heat, damage or modify AC cables.

Also, do not use damaged AC cables or power plugs, and AC cables or power plugs when the wall socket is loose.

Do not use cables other than the ones supplied with this product. Use only specified AC cables and connector cables. Failure to use the correct cables might cause electric shock and equipment failure.

Use this scanner only at the indicated power voltage and current. Improper power voltage and current might cause fire or electric shock.

Also, do not connect to multiple-power strips.

Wipe off any dust from metal parts on the power plug or metal fittings with a soft, dry cloth. Accumulated dust might cause fire or electric shock.

Do not install the scanner in locations subject to oil smoke, steam, humidity, and dust. Doing so might cause a fire or electric shock.

If you detect heat coming from the device or detect other problems such as smoke, strange smells or noises, immediately turn off the scanner and then disconnect its power plug.

Make sure that the smoking has stopped, and then contact the store where you bought the scanner or an authorized FUJITSU scanner service provider.

If the scanner is damaged for any reason, turn off the scanner and unplug the power cable before contacting the store where you purchased the scanner.

Do not insert or drop metal objects into the scanner. Do not scan wet documents or documents with paper clips or staples.

Do not splash or allow the scanner to get wet.

If foreign objects (water, small metal objects, liquids, etc.) get inside the scanner, immediately turn off the scanner and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet, then contact the store where you bought the scanner or the Maintenance Service Center. Pay particular attention to this warning in households where there are small children.

Do not take apart or modify the scanner. The inside of the scanner contains high-voltage components. Touching these components might cause fire or electric shock.

CAUTION

The following describes important cautions.

Install the scanner on a desk so that none of its parts protrude outside of the desktop. Also, make sure that the scanner is installed on a flat, level surface

Do not install the scanner on unstable surfaces. Install the scanner on a level surface that is free of vibration to prevent it from falling.

Install the scanner on a strong surface that will support the weight of the scanner and other devices.

Firmly insert the power plug into the power outlet as far it can go.

Install the scanner away from strong magnetic fields and other sources of electronic noise. Also, protect the scanner from static electricity as this might cause the scanner to malfunction.

Do not use aerosol sprays to clean the scanner. Aerosol sprays cause dirt and dust to enter the scanner, resulting in scanner failure and malfunction.

When the scanner is not used for a long period, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the power outlet for safety.

Do not install the scanner in the direct sunlight or near heating apparatus. Doing so might cause excessive heat to build up inside the scanner, causing fire or scanner trouble. Install the scanner in a well-ventilated location.

Do not block the ventilation ports. Blocking the ventilation ports generates heat inside of scanner, which may result in fire or scanner failure.

Do not place heavy objects on the scanner or use the scanner's top surface for performing other work. Improper installation might cause injuries.

Do not move the scanner with the power and interface cables connected as this might damage the cables, causing fire, electric shock or injuries.

Before moving the scanner, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the power outlet, and disconnect data cables. Also, make sure that the floor is free of obstructions.

Avoid touching any scanner mechanism when scanning as this may cause injuries.

Do not use the device immediately after moving it from a cold place to a warm room. This may cause condensation, which might lead to scanning errors. Let the device dry about one or two hours before you use it.
