Cleaning the Scanner

Page 40 highlights

Cleaning the Scanner To keep your scanner operating at its best, you should clean it periodically. Before cleaning, unplug the power cord. Use a soft cloth to clean the outer case with mild detergent dissolved in water. If the document table glass gets dirty, clean it with a soft, dry cloth. If the glass is stained with grease or other hard-to-remove material, use a small amount of glass cleaner on a soft cloth to remove it. Wipe off any remaining liquid with a dry cloth. Be sure there's no dust on your document table. Dust can cause white spots to appear in your scanned image. Never use a harsh or abrasive brush or cleaning product to clean the document table. A damaged glass surface can decrease the scanning quality. Never use alcohol, thinner, or corrosive solvent to clean the scanner. These chemicals can damage the scanner components as well as the case. Be careful not to spill liquid into the scanner mechanism or electronic components. This could permanently damage them. Don't spray lubricants inside the scanner. Never open the scanner case. If you think repairs or adjustments are necessary, consult your dealer or contact EPSON. 35
