Routine Cleaning

If the original is not copied clearly, clean the following parts of the machine. For high-quality printouts, we recommend
cleaning these parts once or twice a month.
●
Platen glass
●
Underside of the Feeder/Platen Cover
●
Feeder's rollers
• When cleaning the machine, fi rst turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect the power cord.
Failure to observe these steps may result in a fi re or electrical shock.
• Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet regularly, and clean the area around the base of
the power plug's metal pins and the power outlet with a dry cloth to ensure that all dust and grime is
removed. If the power cord is connected for a long period of time in a damp, dusty, or smoky location,
dust can build up around the power plug and become damp. This may cause a short circuit and result in
a fi re.
• When cleaning with a cloth, do not dampen it too much, as this may damage the original or break the machine.
• Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other solvents for cleaning. Doing so may result in damage to the plastic parts.

The feeder is standard-equipped for the imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4251/4245.
