conditions. It only requires a few minutes to complete each maintenance task.
Exterior Cleaning
WARNING: Shut down the scanner before performing this maintenance
task. Do not stare into the scanner's exit window at the laser light. Avoid
direct eye exposure. The laser light level does not constitute a health
hazard, however staring at the laser light for prolonged periods could
result in eye damage.
CAUTION: Do not use any chemical on the scanner that is unsafe for
plastics, such as benzene, acetone, or similar products. Before
performing this maintenance task, be sure to shutdown the unit.
