Cleaning the Platen Glass
If the platen glass is dirty, originals may not be scanned clearly, or the size of the original may not be detected clearly.
1
Turn OFF the machine, and unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet.
IMPORTANT:
Check the machine's operation status before turning it OFF. You can turn OFF the machine while a process is active, but a problem may occur, which may cause you to lose or damage data.

Open the feeder and clean the platen glass and the bottom of the feeder.
| Clean the platen glass. Clean the platen glass using the supplied glass-cleaning sheet. If the cleaning sheet is dirty, rinse it in water and dry it before using it. |
| Clean the bottom of the feeder. Clean the area with a soft, well-wrung cloth dampened with water. Then, wipe the area with a dry, soft cloth. Wait until the water has dried completely before proceeding to the next step. |
NOTE:
If you cannot remove the dirt
Wet a soft cloth with mild detergent and wring it out well, then wipe the machine with it. Afterwards, wipe the machine with a soft and dry cloth.
