6.1 Maintenance
The SCANTEAM 3400 provides reliable and efficient
operation with a minimum of care. Although specific
maintenance is not required, the following periodic checks
insure dependable scanner operation:
❖ Cleaning the Scan Window
Scanning performance may degrade if the scan window is
not clean. If the window is visibly dirty, or if the 3400 isn’t
scanning well,
clean the scan window with a soft cloth or
facial tissue dampened with water
(or a mild detergent–
water solution). If a detergent solution is used, rinse with
a clean tissue dampened with water only.
The scanner housing may also be cleaned the same way.
Do not submerge the scanner in water. The scanner’s housing
is not water–tight.
Caution:
Do not use abrasive wipers or tissues on the scan window:
abrasive wipers may scratch the window.
Never use solvents (alcohol or acetone) on the housing or
window: solvents may damage the finish or the window.

❖ Inspecting Cords and Connectors
Inspect the 3400’s interface cable and connector for wear
or other signs of damage. A badly worn cable or damaged
connector may interfere with scanner operation.
