[. . . ] You can't insert the filmstrip carrier while a slide is in the scanner. 2-12 4 Insert the carrier from the right (as you face the scanner) into the side access slot near the top of the scanner, with the emulsion side of the film strip facing the rear of the scanner and the image right side-up for the LE scanner and upside-down for the ES and Plus scanners. See the following figures. SprintScan 35 LE scanner SprintScan 35 ES and Plus scanners 5 Slide the filmstrip carrier to the left to line up the image you want to scan. As you slide the carrier, you'll detect a slight click as each frame is positioned for scanning. Important!The filmstrip carrier moves in one direction ­ from right to left as you face the front of the unit. If you go past the image you want, you'll have to remove the carrier all the way from the left side and then insert it again from the right. When you choose either the Preview or Scan commands, scanning proceeds as described for slides. 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. This action may also void your warranty. 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. A spare lamp is included inside the scanner's front cover. Use only a 4-Watt tubular fluorescent lamp with a 5/8-inch diameter. 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.
