Chapter 9: Maintenance and Options
If your cash register is unplugged or if there is a power outage, the
batteries keep the information in the memory until you plug the cash
register into a power source or the power is restored.
To make sure the battery back-up protection is working, replace the
batteries at least once a year. To help you remember, consider replacing
the batteries on New Years Day. The cash register can be off or unplugged
for as long as 700 hours (about 28 days) and the information in the
memory is still there when you are ready to use the register again.
If there was a power outage, replace the batteries as soon as there is power
again. DO NOT remove or replace the batteries until you plug the cash
register into a power source and you see messages on the display.
If you will not use the cash register for an extended period of time, you
can remove the batteries to prolong their life. However, all information in
the cash register will be erased if you do this.
Caution
You must plug the cash register in before installing or replacing the back-up
batteries. All data is erased when you remove the batteries if the cash
register is not plugged in before you remove the batteries.
