INSTRUCTION MANUAL

IMPORTANT

• Be very careful when removing and replacing the printer cover, as the cutter mounted on it is very sharp.

• Install the register in a location not subject to direct sunlight, unusual temperature changes, high

humidity or splashing water.

Installation in such locations could cause damage to the cabinet and the electronic components.

• Never install the register in saline areas (e.g.: close to the sea).

Installing the register in such locations could cause component failure with the corrosion.

• Never operate the register with wet hands.

The water could seep into the interior of the register and cause component failure.

• When cleaning the 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 (120V AC).

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 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

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 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.
