We would like to thank you for purchasing our electronic point of sale system, the POS-4000.
Prior to using the system, please carefully read this user manual, so that you will become fa-
miliar with the system’s functionality and performance. This manual should be kept accessible
for future use, as it will assist you with any queries you may have.
Only an authorised agent should install the POS-4000 and its accessories. Unauthorised in-

Important points
• Install the equipment in such a place where it won’t be subject to direct sunlight,
unusual temperature changes (under 0°C or above 50°C), or high humidity.
• Prior to use, plug the unit into the mains supply and leave on for at least eight
hours to charge the memory back up battery.
• If moving the system from a cold environment to a warm one or vice versa, do not
turn it on for at least 20 minutes after the move.
• The unit must not be serviced by a person with wet hands. Water could seep into
the keyboard interior and cause system failure.
• Clean all parts using a dry soft cloth. Do not use cleaning agents like petrol or any
other solvents.
• Avoid spilling liquids onto the unit.
• Connect the main unit to the mains power feed using the supplied adapter
(230V±10%). Other electrical devices connected to the same mains circuit can
be a source of malfunction. Use manufacturer recommended counter-interference
devices in environments with strong interference.
• If the system is malfunctioning, call the authorised service technician immediately.
Do not attempt to fix malfunctions yourself. Do not open the ECR!
• If a receipt is being printed, wait until the printer stops printing. Do not attempt
to tear the receipt off during printing as printer damage can arise.
• Use the recommended high quality thermal paper rolls only. Low quality paper
tapes can damage the ECR printer eventually lowering its lifespan. The printer’s
lifespan is up to 19 miles (30 km) of printed tape if the recommended paper is
used.
• If a coloured strip indicating the end of the tape appears, replace the tape as soon as
possible. Delayed paper tape exchange can damage the printer, eventually reducing
its lifespan.
• Use paper tapes without glued ends as these can damage the printer.
• Use only the supplied power adapter to power the system. Usage of other adapters
may result in damage.
• Use only dealer recommended software and connecting cables.
• To avoid data loss when the system is turned off for a long period, turn the unit on
for at least eight hours once every six months.
• If the ECR is turned off using the main power switch on the rear connector panel,
it should only be turned on again after one minute.
• The reseller or dealer does not carry any responsibility for data or system damage
if the usage recommendations in this manual are not adhered to.

tronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you
