IMPORTANT SAFETY AND HANDLING INFORMATION
WARNING:
Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire, electric
shock, or other injury or damage to the OFIS Scanner or other property. FingerTec Worldwide
Sdn. Bhd. will not be held accountable for any damage or injury caused by improper use of
the OFIS scanner.
HANDLING THE OFIS SCANNER:
The OFIS Scanner contains sensitive compo-
nents. Do not drop, disassemble, microwave, burn, paint, or insert foreign objects
into the OFIS Scanner. Do not use the OFIS Scanner if it has been damaged – for
example, if the OFIS Scanner is cracked, punctured or damaged by water.
Place the finger flat on the reader when enrolling and verifying fingerprints. Apply
the pressure evenly and hold the finger on the sensor until the capture is com-
plete.
KEEPING THE OFIS SCANNER CLEAN:
To achieve a good quality fingerprint
scan, the OFIS Scanner’s sensor will require frequent cleaning. Apply the glutinous
side of a piece of adhesive cellophane tape on the sensor and peel it away repeat-
edly until the sensor is spotless. Do not spray or apply glass cleaner or alcohol-
based cleaner onto the sensor.
AVOIDING WATER AND WET LOCATIONS:
Do not expose the OFIS Scanner
to water or rain or handle the OFIS Scanner near wet locations. Take care not to spill
any food or liquid onto the OFIS Scanner. IN case the OFIS scanner gets wet, unplug
the USB cable before cleaning, and allow it to dry completely before turning it on
again. Do not attempt to dry the OFIS Scanner with an external heat source such as
a microwave oven or hair dryer.
REPAIRING AND MODIFYING THE OFIS SCANNER:
Never attempt to re-
pair or modify the OFIS Scanner yourself. If the OFIS Scanner has been submerged
in water, punctured, or subjected to a severe fall, do not use it until you take it to an
authorized FingerTec reseller for service. If you have questions, contact FingerTec
or an authorized FingerTec reseller. For more information, go to: http://user.fin-
