Caring for the Scanner

Storage
When the scanner is not in use, replace the MA-21 or SA-21 in the adapter slot and turn the
scanner off (be sure to remove any optional fi lm holders from the adapter fi lm slot). If the
device will not be used for a prolonged period, unplug the scanner and store it in a well-
ventilated area where the temperature is between –10 °C (14 °F) and +50 °C (+122 °F) and
the humidity less than 60%. Do not store the scanner where it would be subject to sudden
temperature changes or condensation.
When the Scanner Is Not in Use
The MA-21 and SA-21 are equipped with fl aps to prevent the accumulation of dust inside
the scanner. Be sure one of these adapters is inserted in the scanner when the device is not
in use.
Accumulation of dust on the optical parts in the vicinity of the adapter slot could result in
scanning errors. Should an error occur, remove dust by sending air into the adapter slot with
a blower. Do not insert your fi ngers into the adapter slot.
Cleaning
Turn the scanner off, unplug the power cable, and place the scanner on a fl at, stable surface
where it will not be damaged in a fall. Use a blower or a soft dry cloth to remove dust, a soft
cloth lightly dampened with neutral detergent or liquid soap to remove tougher stains. Do
not use alcohol or other volatile chemicals.
Servicing
Nikon scanners are precision devices. We recommend that the scanner and adapters be taken to an
authorized Nikon service representative once every one to two years for inspection, and once every three
to fi ve years for servicing (fees are charged for these services). Frequent inspection and servicing are
particularly recommended in the case of scanners used in commercial applications.
