• a minimum distance of 300 mm (20 inch) from a back wall,
• a minimum distance of one meter (3 feet) from any door or entrance way.

Picture 9: Minimum distances to the scanner
Do not operate the scanner in an area that has poor air circulation, and/or that is non-
ventilated.
It is recommended to place the scanner on the floor stand which is available as an option.
The floor stand gives the best ergonomic position when using the scanner.
Alternatively the scanner can be placed on a flat and solid table. The load bearing
capacity of the table must match to the device weight.
Choose a location that complies with the limits of temperature and humidity. Refer to the
technical specification, chapter G.4.
Note: Before using the scanner in the new environment allow at least one hour for
temperature adaptation.
“Temperature adaptation” means:
A fast change from cold to warm environmental conditions can build up
condensation inside the housing. This will result in unfavorable scanned images
and could cause permanent damages to the unit.
