Lift the document cover (1). Clean the

cloth moistened with a non-flammable 
glass cleaner.

 

Note

In addition to cleaning the scanner glass 
and glass strip with a non-flammable glass 
cleaner, run your finger tip over the glass 
to see if you can feel anything on it. If you 
feel dirt or debris, clean the glass again 
concentrating on that area. You may need 
to repeat the cleaning process three or 
four times. To test, make a copy after each 
cleaning.
