• Do not locate the scanner in a humid or dusty location. Doing so
might cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not place objects on top of the scanner. Such objects may tip
or fall over, resulting in personal injury.
• To prevent any risk of fire or electric shock, make sure that the
power source meets the power requirements of the unit.
• When unplugging the power cord, grasp it firmly by its plug. Do
not pull directly on the power cord, as this may damage or
expose the cord’s internal wiring, resulting in a fire or electric
shock.
• Leave sufficient space around the power plug so that it can be
unplugged easily. If objects are placed around the power plug,
you will be unable to unplug it in an emergency.
• Do not allow water or flammable substances (alcohol, paint
thinner, benzene, etc.) to spill into the scanner, as this may
result in a fire or electric shock.
• Turn OFF the power switch for safety when not using the
scanner for a long period of time, such as overnight. Also, turn
OFF the power switch, and disconnect the AC adapter from the
scanner and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet
for safety when the machine will not be used for an extended
period of time, such as during consecutive holidays.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the
scanner while you are using it. This may result in personal
injury. Be extra careful of neckties and long hair. If anything
becomes caught in the scanner, immediately disconnect the
power cord to stop the scanner.
• Open the feeder gently to avoid causing a malfunction or
personal injury.
• Close the feeder gently to avoid catching your fingers, as this
may result in personal injury.
• Do not press down hard on the feeder when using the platen
glass to scan thick books. Doing so may damage the platen
glass and result in personal injury.
• Never place any object other than documents to be scanned into
the feeder or on the platen glass. Doing so may result in scanner
malfunction.
• When using the scanner in the winter or cold weather, allow it to
warm up after turning it on. Not doing so may cause
condensation to form or an error to occur.
Disposal
• When disposing of this scanner, be sure to follow all local ordinances and
laws or consult with the retailer who sold you the scanner.
