Cleaning the Scanner’s Window

Reading performance may degrade if the scanner’s window is not clean. If the window is visibly dirty, or if the scanner isn’t operating well, clean the window with a soft cloth or lens tissue dampened with water (or a mild soapy water solution). If a detergent solution is used, rinse with a clean lens tissue dampened with water only.

The base and scanner’s housing may also be cleaned the same way.!Caution:Do not submerge the scanner in water. The scanner’shousing is not watertight.

Do not use abrasive wipes or tissues on the scanner’s window – abrasive wipes may scratch the window. Never use solvents (e.g., alcohol or acetone) on the housing or window – solvents may damage the finish or the window.

Inspecting Cords and Connectors

Inspect the base’s interface cable and connector for wear or other signs of damage. A badly worn cable or damaged connector may interfere with scanner operation. Contact your Hand Held Products distributor for information about cable replacement. Cable replacement instructions are on page 12-2.
