3. Place the slides into the slide holder. Insert the slides with the top of the slides
pointing up and with the front of the slides facing you.
4. Close the scanner lid.
Note Make sure that the slides are flat and do not overlap. Do not press
the Scan Film button until the slides are loaded and the lid is closed.

Press the Scan Film (
