How Do I Clear A Multi-sheet Paper Jam In The Adf Of A Hp5590 Scanner?

I have a HP 5590 scanner with an ADF. The ADF fed through several pages at once and they are now wedged halfway through the scanner. Half the paper is in the output tray but none in the input. I pulled the paper a bit but it won't budge. How do I clear this jam without wrecking the scanner or tearing my document to pieces?
