Reading Non-standard Documents

This section describes proper document placement for thick documents, documents with

oversized covers or damaged or flimsy pages in travel documents.

Some travel booklets are too thick to fit easily under the document clip. Others may have fragile

or flimsy pages (such as visa pages) which require extra care in handling.

1. Open the booklet to the page you want to read.

Raise the light shield and press the clip lever.

Slide the single page under the clip and release the lever.

Note: You may want to insert a damaged or flimsy page using the cover or adjacent

pages as support.

2. Make sure the upper left corner of the page is aligned with the upper left corner of the

document window.

When the document reaches its proper position, the reader will automatically start

scanning the document. Do not move the document during the scanning process.

Note: The light shield must remain down for an accurate read. You may release the

document during reading. This hands-free function allows you to focus on the

traveler.

3. Observe the LEDs during the scanning procedure.
