Important safety instructions

Read all these instructions, and follow all warnings and instructions marked on the scanner.

•In this document, warning, cautions and notes indicate the following:

◦Warnings must be followed carefully to avoid bodily injury.

◦Cautions must be observed to avoid damage to your equipment.

◦Notes contain important information and useful tips on the operation of this product.

•Place the scanner close enough to the computer for the interface cable to reach it easily. Do not place or store the scanner outdoors, near excessive dirt or dust, water, heat sources, or in locations subject to shocks, vibrations, high temperature or humidity, direct sunlight, strong light sources, or rapid changes in temperature or humidity. Do not use with wet hands.

•Use only the type of power source indicated on the product’s label.

•When connecting this product to a computer or other device with a cable, ensure the correct orientation of the connectors. Each connector has only one correct orientation. Inserting a connector in the wrong orientation may damage both devices connected by the cable.

•Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.

•If you use an extension cord with the PC system that the scanner is attached to, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.

•Never disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the scanner by yourself except as specifically explained in the scanner’s guides.

•Do not insert objects into any opening as they may short out parts. Beware of electrical shock hazards.

•If damage occurs to the USB plug, replace the USB cable.

•Unplug the scanner and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: liquid has entered the scanner; the scanner has been dropped or the case has been damaged; the scanner does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. (Do not adjust controls that are not covered by the operating instructions.)

•Unplug the scanner before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
