Safety Instructions

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

Read all of these instructions and save them for later reference. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the scanner.

  • Place the scanner close enough to the computer for the interface cable to reach it easily. Do not place or store the scanner outdoors, near excessive dirt or dust, water, heat sources, or in locations subject to shocks, vibrations, high temperature or humidity, direct sunlight, strong light sources, or rapid changes in temperature or humidity. Do not use with wet hands.

  • Place the scanner near an electrical outlet where the power cord can be easily unplugged.

  • Power-supply cords should be placed to avoid abrasions, cuts, fraying, crimping, and kinking. Do not place objects on top of power-supply cords and do not allow power-supply cords to be stepped on or run over. Be particularly careful to keep all power-supply cords straight at the ends and the points where they enter and leave the transformer.

  • Use only the type of power source indicated on the scanner's label.

  • Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.

  • If you use an extension cord with the scanner, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord's ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the electrical outlet does not exceed the electrical outlet's ampere rating. Do not place multiple loads on the electrical outlet.

  • Never disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the power cord, scanner, or options by yourself, except as specifically explained in the scanner's guides.

  • Do not insert objects into any openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts. Beware of electrical shock hazards.

  • This product includes a lamp component that contains mercury. Please consult your state and local regulations regarding proper disposal or recycling. Do not put in the trash.

  • Allow space behind the scanner for the cables, and space above the scanner so that you can fully raise the integrated transparency unit (film adapter).

  • Unplug the scanner and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
    The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the scanner; the scanner has been dropped or the case damaged; the scanner does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. (Do not adjust controls that are not covered by the operating instructions.)
