Safety Instructions

Read all these instructions and save them for later reference. Follow all warnings and instructions

marked on the scanner.

Caution:

Be sure AC power cord meets the relevant local safety standards.

❏ Place the scanner close enough to the computer for the interface cable to reach it easily. Do not

place or store the scanner or the AC adapter 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 and the AC adapter 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 the AC adapter, or 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 AC adapter model A171B/E that comes with your scanner. Using any other adapter

could cause fire, electrical shock, or injury.

❏ The AC adapter is designed for use with the scanner with which it was included. Do not attempt

to use it with other electronic devices unless specified.

❏ Use only the type of power source indicated on the AC adapter's label, and always supply power

directly from a standard domestic electrical outlet with the AC power cord that meets the relevant

local safety standards.

❏ 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 AC adapter, power cord, scanner, and option

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.

❏ Unplug the scanner and the AC adapter, and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under

the following conditions:

The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the scanner or the AC adapter; the scanner

or the AC adapter has been dropped or the case damaged; the scanner or the AC adapter does

not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. (Do not adjust controls that

are not covered by the operating instructions.)

❏ Unplug the scanner and the AC adapter before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not

use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

If you are not going to use the scanner for a long period, be sure to unplug the AC adapter from the

electrical outlet.

For United Kingdom, Singapore, and Hong Kong users:

Replace fuses only with fuses of the correct size and rating.

For United Kingdom users:

The following safety information applies to the AC adapter.

Warning:

Refer to the rating plate for the voltage and check that the appliance voltage corresponds to the supply

voltage.

Important: The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with the

following code:

Blue - Neutral

Brown - Live

If you have to fit a plug:

As the colours of the mains lead of this appliance may not match the coloured markings used to

identify the terminals in a plug, please observe the following:

❏ The blue wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug marked with the letter N.

❏ The brown wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug marked with the letter L.

❏ If damage occurs to the plug, replace the cord set or consult a qualified electrician.
