5 Clean the rollers

Using a dry cotton swab or a swab that has been lightly dampened with water and wrung out, clean the rollers while turning the toothed wheel slowly in either direction with the ball of your thumb. Excessive force or the use of a screwdriver or other rigid object could damage the wheel. Dry the rollers with a dry cotton swab or leave the roller frame open until the rollers dry.

Storage

When the adapter is removed from the scanner, store it in a well-ventilated area where the temperature is between –10 °C (14 °F) and +50 °C (+122 °F) and the humidity less than 60%. Do not store the adapter where it would be subject to sudden temperature changes or con- densation.

Cleaning

Use a blower or a soft dry cloth to remove dust, a soft cloth lightly dampened with neutral detergent or liquid soap to remove tougher stains. Do not use alcohol or other volatile chemi- cals.
