1. Important Safety Instructions

To ensure the safe operation of this scanner, be sure to read the safety warnings and precautions described below.

Installation Location

The performance of this scanner is affected by the environment in which it is installed. Make sure that the location where the scanner is installed meets the following environmental requirements.

●Provide adequate space around the scanner for operation, maintenance, and ventilation.

3.9" (100 mm) or more
mm) or more	or more
24.84" (631	32.20" (818 mm)

●Avoid installing the machine in direct sunlight. If this is unavoidable, use curtains to shade the scanner.

●Avoid locations where a considerable amount of dust accumulates.
