CANON Microfilm Scanner 350II - WARNING - 1

CAUTIONS

Do not set up the scanner on sloping, wobbly or otherwise unstable surfaces or in locations affected by excessive vibration. The scanner could cause injury if it falls over or slides off the surface. Do not block the ventilation slots as this could result in a fire due to the build up of heat inside the scanner. Do not place vessels containing liquids (cups, vases, etc.) or small metal objects (paper clips, staples, necklaces, etc.) on top of the scanner. Liquids or metal objects falling into the scanner could cause an electric shock or fire. If any liquids or metal objects fall into the scanner, immediately switch the scanner off, unplug the power cord and contact an authorized Canon dealer or service center. Do not set up the scanner in dusty or humid locations as this could result in an electric shock or fire. Do not place heavy objects on top of the scanner as such objects could fall and cause injury.

Use only a power supply having the rated voltage. The use of other voltages could result in a fire or electric shock. Always unplug the power cord by grasping the plug itself. Pulling on the power cord can damage the cord so that the core wires are exposed or snapped and could cause a fire or electric shock. Do not use an extension power cord as this could cause a fire or electric shock. Keep the area around the power outlet free of obstacles to ensure that the scanner can be unplugged quickly in the event of an emergency. Take care not to tip water or flammable solvents such as alcohol, thinners or benzene into the scanner as this could result in a fire or electric shock. If the scanner will be left unused for a lengthy period, always unplug the scanner as a safety measure. Avoid touching internal scanner components when you perform routine cleaning or maintenance such as changing the lamp. Some internal components generate high temperatures or high voltages. To avoid injury such as burns or electric shocks, take care also that metal objects such as necklaces or bracelets do not come into contact with internal scanner components. To avoid injury when you are moving the scanner, take care not to put your hands on the metal protrusions on the underside of the scanner unit.

Service Call Errors

Every time you turn on the main unit, the unit automatically performs a self-diagnostic test. If the unit detects a problem at power on, or at any other time during operation, it will display a Service Call Error message in the display. A Service Call Error is indicated by an error code consisting of an "E" followed by three digits ("Ennn" where "n" indicates a number). This code is displayed in 2 parts as "En" followed by "nn". (Eg. "E123" is displayed as "E1" followed by "23".)

Follow the procedure below when a Service Call Error occurs.

  1. Immediately switch off the scanner and wait several minutes.
  2. Switch the scanner on again and check the scanner status.
