Routinely cleaning the exit window is required. A dirty window may affect scanning accuracy. Do not allow any abrasive material to touch the window.
Dampen a soft cloth with isopropyl alcohol or use pre-moistened alcohol wipes.
Gently wipe all surfaces, including the front, back, sides, top, and bottom. Never apply liquid directly to the scanner. Be careful not to let liquid pool around the scanner window, trigger, cable connector or any other area on the device.
Be sure to clean the trigger
and in between the trigger and the housing
(use a cotton-tipped applicator to reach tight or inaccessible areas).
Do not spray water or other cleaning liquids directly into the exit window.
Wipe the scanner exit window with a lens tissue or other material suitable for cleaning optical material such as eyeglasses.
Immediately dry the scanner window after cleaning with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to prevent streaking.
