Question: The scanner is locked and I cannot unlock it; what do I do?

Answer: You will need to do either reset or initialize the scanner. You should try to reset first; initialization clears all information in memory.

Resetting the Scanner

Turn off the scanner, then turn it on again.
Insert a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip, into the reset opening on the side of the scanner and gently press then release the reset button inside the opening.
Note: If the scanner still does not work properly, you might need to initialize the scanner.

Initializing the Scanner

Caution: This procedure clears all information you stored in the scanner's memory. Initialize the scanner only when you are sure the scanner is not working properly.

Turn off the scanner, then turn it on again.
Press and hold CLEAR.
While holding down CLEAR, insert a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip, into the reset opening on the side of the scanner and gently press then release the reset button inside the opening.
When the display reappears, release CLEAR.
Note: You must release RESET before releasing CLEAR, otherwise the memory might not clear.
