Cleaning and Maintaining Your GlobalVision F3/ F4 Scanner
Summary: Regular maintenance of your GlobalVision F3/ F4 scanner
Regular scanner maintenance is a sure way to minimize costly downtime and keep your scanner operating at its best.
Cleaning the scan area
Turn off the scanner and unplug the AC adapter cord from the scanner.
Clean the outer case with a cloth dampened with mild detergent and water.
If the glass surface of the document table gets dirty, clean it with a soft dry cloth. If the glass surface has grease or other hard to remove material, use a small amount of glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Wipe off all remaining liquid. Do not apply glass cleaner directly on the glass.

Do not press the glass surface of the document table with any force. Do not use a hard or abrasive brush, which can scratch or damage the glass surface. A damaged glass surface can decrease the scan quality. Never open the scanner case.
