Install the scanner away from strong magnetic
fields and other sources of electronic noise.
Also, protect the scanner from any static
electricity as this might cause the scanner to
malfunction.
Do not use aerosol sprays to clean the
scanner. Aerosol sprays cause dirt and dust to
enter the scanner, resulting scanner failure and
malfunction.
When the scanner is not going to be used for a
long period of time, be sure to disconnect the
power plug from the power outlet for safety.
Do not install the scanner under direct sunlight
or near heating apparatus. Doing so might
cause excessive heat to build up inside the
scanner, which can cause scanner trouble or
even fire. Install the scanner in a well-ventilated
location.
