Safety Precautions
Choosing a location
• Do not install the machine in a location that is unstable or subject to excessive vibration.
• Do not install the machine in locations that are very humid or dusty, in direct sunlight, outdoors, or
close to a heating source.
To avoid the risk of fire or electric shocks, use the machine under the operating environment specified
in the On-screen Manual.
• Do not push the scanner into a narrow cabinet or put a tablecloth on it or place on a thick rug. If the
scanner generates heat by doing so, it may cause damage.
• Do not set up in areas where there are excessive fluctuations in temperature. Also do not move the
scanner from low-temperature areas to high temperature areas. Condensation may cause image
errors. Leave the scanner enough time to gradually adapt to the new conditions before use.
• Do not place the scanner in areas with high humidity, areas subject to direct sunlight, areas with high
temperatures and areas near flame sources. Fire or electrical shock may result.
• Leave enough space (approximately 8 in. (20 cm)) around the scanner when setting up.
Power supply
• When unplugging the USB cable, always pull on the main body. Pulling the cable may damage the
wires and lead to fire or electrical shock.
• Do not apply excessive force to plug or unplug USB cable.
• Do not damage or modify the USB cable.
• Do not place heavy objects on, pull or excessively bend, twist or tie the USB cable.
• Do not twist or tie the USB cable.
• Plug the USB cable completely into the connector.
Working around the machine
• When setting up the stand, read carefully the paper manual for setting up the stand and place the
scanner on the stand correctly.
• Keep the document cover closed except when necessary.
• Never put your hands or fingers in the scanner while it is scanning.
• Hold the scanner firmly with both hands at two ends when carrying it.
• Do not place any objects on the scanner, especially paper clips, staples and other metallic part or
containers filled with alcohol, thinners or other flammable liquid.
• Always release the scanner lock before connecting the scanner to a computer.
Running the scanner while it is locked will damage the scanner.
• When loading a thick book on the platen glass, do not press hard on the document cover.
The platen glass may break.
• Do not release the document cover until it completely opens/closes.
• Do not place items that weigh 2.0 kg (4.4 lbs.) or more on the platen glass. Also, do not press heavily
(i.e., more than 2.0 kg (4.4 lbs.)) on the document cover or the platen glass.
• Do not drop heavy books or objects on the scanner. Also do not give a shock to the platen glass. The
platen glass may break.
• When not in use for extended periods, unplug the USB cable for safety.
