# OVERVIEW OF CLEANING

To ensure that the machine continues to provide top quality performance, periodically clean the machine.
If coloured/white lines or misfeeds occur, follow the cleaning procedures below.

Do not use a flammable spray to clean the machine. If gas from the spray comes in contact with hot electrical components or the fusing unit inside the machine, fire or electrical shock may result.

- Do not use thinner, benzene, or similar volatile cleaning agents to clean the machine. These may degrade or discolour the housing.
- Use a soft cloth to gently wipe off dirt from the area on the operation panel (shown below). If you use a stiff cloth or rub hard, the surface may be damaged.
