1. Remove the cleaning unit fixing screw, and slide
out the unit.
2. To pull the cleaning unit out of slide guide, pull the
cleaning unit while holding down the lock pawl.
CAUTION
• Because the slide guides have sharp edges,
keep them in the main body.
• Lay paper in place where the cleaning unit
is put. Be sure there is no metal debris
present that can cause damage. Metal
screws, paper clips, etc. attracted by the
cleaning roller can scratch the roller and
blade.

agitating roller, do not tilt the unit when the
cleaning carrier is in the unit.
• When the cleaning carrier is in the cleaning
unit, do not turn the unit up side down.
