Maintenance
Batteries
This cash register provides a low battery symbol (l)
and a no battery symbol (l) which appears on the
far left of the display in one of the following situations:
Low battery symbol (l)
• When less than 3 batteries are installed in the cash
register.
• When the voltage of the batteries installed in the
cash register is under the required level.
No battery symbol (l)
• When no batteries are installed in the cash register.
• When the batteries installed in the cash register
are dead.
When either of these symbols appear, check
batteries. If no batteries are installed, install three
new "AA" batteries at once. If batteries are already
installed, replace them with new ones as soon as
possible. If the AC power cord is disconnected or a
power failure occurs when the batteries are dead or
not installed, all the programmed settings will be reset
to the default settings and any data stored in memory
will be cleared.
