Important Notes on Scanning
CAUTION
Never attempt to scan any object of
high intrinsic or personal value,or that
would otherwise be difficult to replace
if damaged or broken.
Because scanning involves contact by the
probe,the object scanned may be damaged.
Incorrect settings may also cause the
scanned object to strike areas other than
the probe. Scan-object damage is not cov-
ered by warranty.
When loading an object to scan,make
sure that all sides and the top of the
object are within the scannable area.
A scanned object may strike a component
other than the probe and suffer damage.
Scan-object damage is not covered by war-
ranty.
Be sure to remove the probe cover
when performing scanning.
Otherwise the object scanned may strike
the probe cover and suffer damage. Scan-
object damage is not covered by warranty.
