Safety Notes
To ensure safe operation, read the following precautions and recommendations before you choose a location and set up the scanner.
Choosing a Safe Location
To ensure adequate space for operation, maintenance and ventilation, ensure that there is ample space around the scanner on all sides.
Avoid locations exposed to direct sunlight.
When direct sunlight is unavoidable, use curtains to protect the scanner.
Avoid dusty locations.
Dust can adversely affect internal scanner components.
Avoid locations close to taps, water heaters or humidifiers where the scanner would be exposed to high temperatures or moisture.
Avoid locations affected by fumes from ammonia, acetone or other volatile chemicals. Never use any kind of volatile or flammable spray or aerosol near the scanner.
– 4 –
Before You Begin...
Never set up the scanner in locations where flammable substances such as alcohol, paint thinners or other organic solvents are present.
Always set up the scanner on flat and stable surface that can support the weight of the scanner (47 kg).
Choose a location that is free of excessive vibration.
Avoid locations that are subject to extreme or sudden changes in temperature.
Condensation formed inside the scanner can adversely affect print quality. The temperature and humidity
ranges for optimum scanner operation are as follows: Temperature: 10° C to 32.5° C (50° F to 90.5° F)
Humidity: 10% to 85% RH (condensation free)
Do not set up the scanner close to equipment that can generate strong magnetic fields, such as speakers, radios or televisions.

Before You Begin...
Power Supply
Power should always be supplied from a rated power outlet.
Do not place objects on the power cord and position the cord so that it will not be stepped on by people working
around the scanner.
Do not bundle the power cord or wrap it around objects such as table or chair legs.
Do not attempt to unplug the scanner by pulling on the power cord. Grasp the plug itself firmly to remove it.
To ensure safe operation, always ground the scanner. Note that the scanner should never be grounded by connecting the ground lead to a gas or water pipe.
If you are unsure of any aspects of the power supply, consult your authorized Canon dealer or your power supplier.

Important Warnings
WARNING
●Always observe these warnings when using the scanner. Failure to follow these warnings could result in injury due to fire or electric shock.
●Do not set up the scanner in a location close to flammable solvents such as alcohol and paint thinners.
●Do not cut, damage or modify the power cord, do not pull or bend the power cord excessively, and do not place heavy objects on the power cord.
●Never plug in or unplug the power cord with wet hands.
●Do not place objects on top of the scanner as such objects could fall and cause injury. Do not plug the scanner into a multi-socket adapter.
●Do not knot or bundle the power cord, and ensure that the plug is pushed fully into the power outlet.
●Use only the power cord supplied with the scanner.
●Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the scanner. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the scanner.
●Do not use flammable sprays or aerosols near the scanner.
●Switch the scanner off and unplug the power cord before cleaning the scanner.
●To clean the unit, use a cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild detergent.
●If the scanner emits an unusual noise, odor, smoke or sparks, or if the scanner will not function when switched on, immediately switch the scanner off, unplug the power cord and contact an authorized Canon dealer or service center.
●Before you move the scanner even a short distance, switch the scanner off and unplug the power cord.

Before You Begin...
CAUTIONS
●Do not set up the scanner on sloping, wobbly or otherwise unstable surfaces or in locations affected by excessive vibration. The scanner could cause injury if it falls over or slides off the surface.
●Do not block the ventilation slots as this could result in a fire due to the build up of heat inside the scanner.
●Do not place vessels containing liquids (cups, vases, etc.) or small metal objects (paper clips, staples, necklaces, etc.) on top of the scanner. Liquids or metal objects falling into the scanner could cause an electric shock or fire. If any liquids or metal objects fall into the scanner, immediately switch the scanner off, unplug the power cord and contact an authorized Canon dealer or service center.
●Do not set up the scanner in dusty or humid locations as this could result in an electric shock or fire.
●Do not place heavy objects on top of the scanner as such objects could fall and cause injury.
●Use only a power supply having the rated voltage. The use of other voltages could result in a fire or electric shock.
●Always unplug the power cord by grasping the plug itself. Pulling on the power cord can damage the cord so that the core wires are exposed or snapped and could cause a fire or electric shock.
●Do not use an extension power cord as this could cause a fire or electric shock.
●Keep the area around the power outlet free of obstacles to ensure that the scanner can be unplugged quickly in the event of an emergency.
●Take care not to tip water or flammable solvents such as alcohol, thinners or benzene into the scanner as this could result in a fire or electric shock.
●If the scanner will be left unused for a lengthy period, always unplug the scanner as a safety measure.
●Avoid touching internal scanner components when you perform routine cleaning or maintenance such as changing the lamp. Some internal components generate high temperatures or high voltages. To avoid injury such as burns or electric shocks, take care also that metal objects such as necklaces or bracelets do not come into contact with internal scanner components.
●To avoid injury when you are moving the scanner, take care not to put your hands on the metal protrusions on the underside of the scanner unit.

Operation Modes
The MS800 scanner has 2 operation modes: “Reader/Printer mode”, in which the image on the screen is sent directly to a dedicated printer, and “Scanner mode”, in which the scanner is connected to a personal computer and the scanned image data is downloaded to the computer to be printed on a printer connected to the computer. The connected devices and operation procedures for the two modes differ. Select the mode that best matches your system setup.
The operation mode is set by the service technician at installation. Contact your authorized Canon service representative for details.
