Cleaning the ADF (Auto Document Feeder)

Be sure to use a soft, clean, lint-free and dry cloth to clean the ADF (Auto Document Feeder).
Important
• Be sure to turn off the power and unplug the power cord before cleaning the machine.
• 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 if the machine completed sending or
receiving all the faxes before unplugging the power cord.
• The machine cannot send or receive faxes when the power is turned off.
• If the power cord is unplugged, all documents stored in the machine's memory will be lost. Send or
print a necessary document, or save it on a USB flash drive before unplugging the power cord.
• Do not use tissue paper, paper towels, rough-textured cloth, or similar materials for cleaning so as not
to scratch the surface. Paper tissue powder or fine threads may remain inside the machine and cause
problems such as print head blockage and poor printing results.
• Never use volatile liquids such as thinners, benzene, acetone, or any other chemical cleaner to clean
the machine, as this may cause a malfunction or damage the surface of the machine.
