Fire/Electric Shock
● Before cleaning the scanner, disconnect the AC
adapter from the power outlet.
● Do not use any aerosol sprays or alcohol based sprays
to clean the scanner.
Dust blown up by strong air from the spray may enter
the inside of the scanner. This may cause the scanner
to fail or malfunction, or errors in scanned images.
Sparks, caused by static electricity, generated when
blowing off dust and dirt from the outside of the
scanner may cause a fire.

5.2. Cleaning the Scanner Exterior
Clean the scanner exterior with a cloth moistened with a
small amount of neutral detergent or Cleaner F1 (sold
separately).
● Never use paint thinner or other organic
solvents.
●
During the cleaning, prevent water or
moisture from getting inside the scanner.

It may take long before the cleaner
vaporizes if a large quantity is used. When
cleaning the scanner parts, dampen a
cloth with modest quantities of the
cleaner. In addition, wipe off the cleaner
completely with a soft lint-free cloth to
leave no residue on the surface of the
cleaned parts.
5.3. Cleaning Inside of the scanner
Clean inside of the scanner with a cloth moistened with
Cleaner F1.
In an alternating succession of scanning documents, the
accumulated paper-powder and dust inside the scanner
causes a scanning error.
As a guideline, clean the ADF every 1,000 scans. Note that
this guideline varies according to the type of documents
you are scanning. For example, the ADF must be cleaned
more frequently when scanning documents on that the
toner has not been sufficiently fixed on.
Clean the ADF according to the following procedure
referring to the illustrations.
WARNING
The glass surface inside the ADF becomes hot during
the scanner operation.
Before you start cleaning the inside of the scanner,
disconnect the AC adapter from the outlet, and wait at
least 15 minutes to let the scanner cool down.
CAUTION
When you perform cleaning, make sure that the inside of
the scanner is free of any foreign object, and be careful
not to get your hand or the cloth caught on the pick
spring (metal part) as a deformed pick spring (metal
part) may cause injury.
● Never use water or neutral detergent to
clean the inside of the scanner
