Cleaning the Glass Plates

Both of the glass plates in the ßatbed drawer will require regular clean-
ing. To do so:
1. Get some standard glass cleaner and a clean cloth.
2. Position the scanner so that when you open the drawer, you can
reach under it (for example, at the edge of a desk). Make sure that
the scanner will not fall of the edge.
3. Pull out the ßatbed support as far as it will go by pulling on the
drawer support handle shown in Figure 2.
4. Press the drawer button (shown in Figure 1). The ßatbed drawer
opens automatically.
IMPORTANT: if a problem occurs when the drawer is opening
(such as an obstruction), you can stop the drawer by pressing the
drawer button again.
5. If necessary, remove the electrostatic plate as described in ÒRemov-
ing the Electrostatic PlateÓ on page 13.
6. Clean the top surface of the top glass plate using the cloth and glass
cleaner.
7. Lift the top glass plate by inserting your index Þngers into the gaps
behind the electrostatic plate door (shown in Figure 2) and lifting.
Lift the top glass plate all the way up until it stops. It will remain
held open.
8. Clean the bottom surface of the top glass plate and both surfaces of
the bottom glass plate using the cloth and glass cleaner.
9. Gently pull the top glass plate back down. There will be some ini-
tial resistance, but it will move very easily after you pull it down
about half way. Do not drop the pate, but slowly lie it down.
10. If you will not be scanning using the glass plates right away,
replace the electrostatic plate as described in ÒReplacing the Elec-
trostatic PlateÓ on page 14.
