Cleaning the payment terminal
In order to extend the service life of your equipment, it is advisable to clean your payment terminal
regularly. This depends on the number of transactions you carry out and the environment in which the
payment terminal has been installed.
For instance, if you notice that the performance of the card readers is deteriorating, you can use the
special-purpose cleaning cards to clean the readers.
A special cleaning set is available for cleaning the
payment terminal. The cleaning set includes the following
items:
•
Anti-static and anti-bacterial cleaning pads
•
A cleaning card for the chip card reader
•
A cleaning card for the magnetic card reader
Chapter 9 describes how you can order the cleaning set
and other supplies.

reader of the payment terminal.
