3.2.3 Cleaning the ADF
Clean the ADF every 1,000 scans. Note that this guideline varies according to the type of documents you are
scanning. For example, it may be necessary to clean the ADF more frequently if documents are scanned
when the toner is not sufficiently fixed on the printout.
As the documents are scanned by ADF, Pad ASSY and Pick roller unit may be contaminated with ink, toner
particles or paper dust. In this case the scanner may not feed documents smoothly or several documents may
be fed at once. If this occurs please clean the ADF as follows to return your scanner to its original state.
■ Cleaning Method
1. Open the ADF.
2. Clean the following locations with a lint-free cloth moistened with the Cleaner F1.
Be careful, the inside of ADF (automatic document
feeder) may become hot during the operation.
ATTENTION
The glass surface under the ADF becomes hot during the operation of
the scanner.
Before you start to clean the inner parts of the scanner, disconnect the
AC adapter from the power outlet, and wait at least 15 minutes to let the
glass cool down.
Be careful, the ADF may close and pinch your
fingers.
