Cleaning The Platen Glass And Document Cover - Canon MB2100 Series Online Manual

Cleaning the Platen Glass and Document Cover

Important
• Before cleaning the machine, turn it off and unplug it.
• The power cannot be turned off while the machine is sending or receiving a fax, or when unsent
faxes are stored in the machine's memory. Make sure the machine has finished sending or
receiving faxes before turning it off.
• Remember that faxes cannot be sent or received while the machine is off.
• Unplugging the machine will reset the date/time setting and erase all documents in the machine's
memory. Send faxes, print documents, or save jobs to a USB flash drive as needed before
unplugging the machine.
• To avoid scratching surfaces, do not clean with tissue paper, paper towels, or rough-textured cloth.
Additionally, paper dust or fibers may remain in the machine and clog the print head or affect printing
quality.
• Never clean the machine with detergent or volatile chemicals such as thinner, benzine, or acetone,
which may cause malfunction or damage surfaces.
Use a soft, dry cloth that is clean and lint-free.
Wipe away any smudges or dust on the platen glass (A), the bottom of the document cover (B, in white), the
glass surface of the ADF (Auto Document Feeder) (C), and the bottom of the ADF (D, in white).
Wipe the glass surfaces carefully, leaving no residue.
Important
• Be especially gentle when wiping the bottom of the document cover (B, in white).
• Any glue, ink, correction fluid, or other substances on the ADF glass (C) may cause black streaks in
scanned images. Gently wipe away any of these substances on the glass.
