CAUTION!
Never install the batteries into the cash register before initializing it. Before you start operating the cash
register, you must first initialize it, then install three new alkaline batteries LR6 (“AA” size) on the register.
Otherwise, distorted memory contents and malfunction of the cash register will occur. For this procedure, please
refer to pages 6 to 7.
IMPORTANT
• Be very careful when removing and replacing the printer cover, as the cutter mounted on it is very
sharp.
• Install the cash register in a location not subject to direct sunlight, unusual temperature changes, high
humidity, splashing water or dust and sand.
Installation in such locations could cause damage to the cabinet, the electronic components and other precision
components.
• Never operate the register with wet hands.
The water could seep into the interior of the register and cause component failure.
• When cleaning your register, use a dry, soft cloth. Never use solvents, such as benzine and/or thinner.
The use of such chemicals will lead to discoloration or deterioration of the cabinet.
• The register plugs into any standard wall outlet (official (nominal) voltage).
Other electrical devices on the same electrical circuit could cause the register to malfunction.
• For protection against data loss, please install three alkaline batteries LR6 (“AA” size) after initializing
the cash register. When handling the batteries, please observe the following:
Incorrectly using batteries can cause them to burst or leak, possibly damaging the interior of the cash register.
• RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.
• Be sure that the positive (+) and negative (–) poles of each battery are facing in the proper direction
for installation.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
• Never mix old batteries and new ones.
• Never leave dead batteries in the battery compartment.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the cash register for long periods.
• Should a battery leak, clean out the battery compartment immediately, taking care to avoid letting
the battery fluid come into direct contact with your skin.
• For battery disposal, follow the corresponding law in your country.
• For complete electrical disconnection, disconnect the AC adapter.
• Be sure to use the attached AC adapter. Otherwise, an electric shock or fire may be caused.
