been well wrung out. Never use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner,
or any other flammable substances.
• If the scanner makes strange noises, or gives off, smoke, heat,

abnormalities occur when you use the machine, immediately
turn the power switch OFF, and disconnect the power plug from
the power outlet. Then, contact your local authorized Canon
