HP6200C Scanner - How To Clean Underside of Glass

I have an HP 6200C autofeed flatbed scanner and would like to clean
the underside of the glass which has developed what looks like an oily
film; much like the inside windshield of car where the driver smokes.

Does anyone kjnow how to gain access to the underside of the glass,
short of smashing it?

Thanks.

If the 6200C is like the 6100C, which is mechanically similar
to my 4C ...
0. Disconnect power. Take anti-static precautions.
1. Remove the auto-feed assembly.
This should expose the rear Torx screwheads.
2. Remove the metal covers over the 2 front Torx screw heads.
3. Remove the screws and lift off the upper case w/glass.
4. Clean and replace.

Search the net for further platen glass cleaning advice.
