Routine Cleaning
If the original is not copied clearly, clean the following parts of the machine. For
high-quality printouts, we recommend cleaning these parts once or twice a month.
• Platen glass
• Underside of the platen cover
• Feeder's rollers
WARNING
• When cleaning the machine, first turn OFF the main power switch, and
disconnect the power cord. Failure to observe these steps may result in a fire or
electrical shock.
• Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other solvents for cleaning. Doing
so may result in damage to the plastic parts.
• Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet regularly, and clean the area
around the base of the power plug's metal pins and the power outlet with a dry
cloth to ensure that all dust and grime is removed. If the power cord is
connected for a long period of time in a damp, dusty, or smoky location, dust
can build up around the power plug and become damp. This may cause a short
circuit and result in a fire.
