Setup and use 2-13 3 Care and maintenance Maintenance The SprintScan 35 scanners require very little maintenance. If the scanner becomes dirty, unplug it, then simply wipe it off with a damp (not wet) cloth with some mild soap or detergent. Do not use harsh cleaners as they could damage the case or mar its appearance. Warning: Do not use any kind of spray directly on the scanner. The spray could get inside the scanner, damaging the bulb, the lens, or the mechanism. All the scanners are shipped with a spare lamp. See page 3-2 for lamp replacement. Fuse replacement The SprintScan 35 ES has an accessible external fuse that can be replaced (see page 3-4). The SprintScan 35 ES has other, internal fuses, and the LE and Plus have only internal fuses. If you suspect an internal fuse has failed, do not attempt to disassemble the scanner. To do so could result in severe electrical shock and damage to the scanner. Contact your service representative or Polaroid Technical Support. 3-1 Changing the lamp The scanning lamp should be replaced if it begins to flicker or dim, or if the ready light does not come on. lamp specification is F4T5 Cool White (CW), and the European/Asian specification is TL4W/33. Contact your dealer for the proper replacement lamps. Important: The quality of scans can be affected by dirt or smudges on the lamp. The best assurance of a clean lamp is to wear cotton gloves while changing the lamp and to avoid touching the lamp except at the ends. Follow these steps to change the lamp: 1 Remove the slide or filmstrip from the scanner. 2 Turn off the scanner. 3 Open the front cover by pressing the release button under- neath the front and lifting the cover upward, as shown in the following figure. The cover lifts completely off. 4 If the lamp is still hot, wait for it to cool for a few minutes before attempting to remove it. 3-2 5 Grasp the lamp by both ends, near the housing, and pull upward one end at a time to free it from the sockets. Some resistance is normal. 6 Remove the spare lamp from inside the front cover of the scanner. It's held in place with two clips. 7 Holding the new lamp by both ends, push each end down- ward into the sockets. If an end does not go in fairly easily, you may need to rotate the lamp slightly to line up the connectors. 8 Replace the front cover of the scanner. You may now want to turn on the scanner so that it can run the self-test. Both the power indicator light and the ready light should glow steadily. Discard the old lamp in an appropriate way, just as you would any used light bulb. Order a new spare from your dealer. Care and maintenance 3-3 Changing the fuse (ES scanner only) The fuses in the SprintScan 35 ES scanner are meant to prevent damage to the scanner's circuitry in case of inappropriate power surges or electrical short. If you have a fuse failure, you should always try to find out the cause. Contact your dealer or Polaroid Technical Support whenever you suspect a blown fuse.
