Introduction
Caution Do not open the device. Repairs are only allowed by Cross Match Technologies. Changes
or modifications not expressly approved by Cross Match Technologies could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
• Whenever it is likely that the electrical protection has been compromised, the
device and system must be made unplugged and secured against
unauthorized use.
• Do not apply mechanical stress to the document contact area. Do not throw
heavy objects onto it. The platen is made of glass and might be destroyed if
not handled properly. A broken platen might have sharp edges, which could
cause injuries.
• Do not scratch the document contact area. The platen is vulnerable to sharp
metallic instruments (knives, scissors), extremely hard objects (diamonds)
and also dust. Scratches may reduce the image quality and thereby lead to
scanning results below the required quality specification.
• Always keep the document contact area clean. Use the recommended glass
cleaner and lint-free tissue for cleaning. Do not use oily or abrasive cleaners
since they might affect the platen surface quality.
• Do not pour liquids (water etc.) onto the D SCAN AUTHENTICATOR CF.
The device is protected against cleaning with a damp cloth or tissue,
however, it is not waterproof.
Warning Do not look directly into the lights of the document contact area. Maintain a required
minimum distance of not less than 0.3 meters.
