    About Locations
    WARNING
    ¥ Do not place the equipment near flammable liquids such as alcohol or thinners. If
    the internal electrical parts come in contact with flammable liquids, fire or electrical
    shock may result.
    ¥ Do not place the following objects on top of the equipment. If the internal
    electrical parts come in contact with these objects, fire or electrical shock may
    result.
    - metallic objects, such as necklaces
    - containers with liquid, such as cups, vases and flower pots
    ¥ Do not place the equipment on shaky stands, unstable surfaces or surfaces subject
    to frequent vibrations. If the equipment falls, it may cause injuries.
    ¥ Do not place heavy objects on the equipment. Objects may fall and cause injuries.
    About the Power Supply
    WARNING
    ¥ Do not damage, mutilate or modify the AC adapter. Do not place heavy objects on,
    pull or excessively bend the cord of the AC adapter. Damaged wires may cause fire
    or electrical shock.
    ¥ Do not plug in/unplug the AC adapter with wet hands. Fire or electrical shock may
    result.
    ¥ Do not connect excessive numbers of plugs into one electrical outlet. Fire or
    electrical shock may result.
    ¥ Do not twist or tie the AC adapter together. Fire or electrical shock may result.
    ¥ Always plug the AC adapter in all the way. If it is not plugged in completely, fire or
    electrical shock may result.
    ¥ Do not use AC adapters other than the one supplied. Fire or electrical shock may
    result.
    ¥ As a rule, do not use electrical extension cords. Fire or electrical shock may result. If
    the use of an extension cord is necessary, do not use one longer than 5 m (15 feet).
    Make sure that the extension cord is not twisted, and that the AC adapter is fully
    plugged into the extension cord. Do not use multiple extension cords.
    ¥ Do not use extension cords in corridors or other high traffic areas where they can
    be stepped on or tripped over. This could damage the cords and result in fire or
    electrical shock.
    ¥ Do not use the AC adapter outdoors or in exposed areas.

    CAUTION
    ¥ Do not plug the equipment into outlets with voltages other than the specified
    voltages. Incorrect voltages may result in fire or electrical shock.
    ¥ When unplugging the AC adapter, always pull on the main body. Pulling on the
    cord may damage the wires and lead to fire or electrical shock.
    ¥ Do not place objects around the AC adapter in case it needs to be unplugged
    during emergencies.
    ¥ Unplug the AC adapter from the outlet at least once a year and clean the area
    around the base of the AC adapterÕs metal pins to ensure that all dust is removed. If
    dust accumulates in this area, it may result in fire.
    General Handling Precautions
    WARNING
    ¥ Do not take apart or modify the equipment. Fire or electrical shock may result from
    improper handling of its components.
    ¥ If you hear unusual noises, see smoke, feel excessive heat or smell anything
    unusual, immediately unplug the AC adapter and contact your retailer or Canon
    Customer Support Help Desk.  Continued use may result in fire or electrical shock.
    ¥ Do not use flammable sprays near this equipment.  Also do not spill water, liquids,
    or flammable liquids on the equipment.  If these fluids enter this equipment and
    contact the electrical parts, fire or electrical shock may result.  If anything enters
    the equipment, immediately unplug the AC adapter and contact your retailer or
    Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
    ¥ When cleaning the equipment, always unplug the AC adapter.  Otherwise, fire or
    electrical shock may result.
    ¥ When cleaning the equipment, use a water-moistened cloth that is well wrung out.
    Do not use flammable liquids, such as alcohol, benzene or thinners.  If a flammable
    liquid enters the inner electrical parts, fire or electrical shock may result.
    CAUTION
    ¥ Carefully close the document cover in order not to pinch your hands.
    ¥ Do not press heavily on the document cover.  The document glass may break and
    injure you.
    ¥ When not in use for extended periods, such as long weekends, unplug the AC
    adapter for safety.
    ¥ When transporting the equipment, be extremely careful.  Dropping it could cause
    an injury.
    ¥ Wait until the equipment has cooled before placing a cover over it.  Otherwise fire
    may result.

    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
    2. When cleaning the document cover or document glass, dampen
    a clean, soft cloth with water and wring the cloth well. Use the
    well-wrung cloth to gently remove dirt and dust. Then,
    thoroughly remove any moisture or water vapor with a soft,
    dry cloth. Be particularly careful to remove any traces of dirt or
    liquid when wiping the document glass.
    ¥ Moisture left on the document glass or cover may damage photographs and other
    documents as well as produce poor results.
    ¥ Do not dampen the connectors, ports or other metallic components on the scannerÕs
    back panel. Immediately remove any moisture that contacts these components by
    wiping them with a dry cloth.
    ¥ Do not use a sodden cloth or apply a liquid directly to any portion of the scanner.
    Any moisture that enters the interior, the underside of the document glass or the
    sensors may degrade image quality and lead to malfunctions.
    ¥ Never use substances containing alcohol, thinners or benzene on the equipment.
    Use of these substances may deform, discolor or dissolve the casing.
