Whenever cleaning is needed you will be advised on the POS screen, e.g. through a status message

of the POSlinq™ middleware. Read here

· which components have to be cleaned

· how often

· using which cleaning agents and

· how to do it

Most of the maintenance work should be done by a user logged on as an administrator (red star in-

dicator ).

For cleaning work on the Paypod™ pay station please observe the following safety instructions:

· Clean only the components mentioned in this section, please. All other pay station parts may

only be cleaned by a qualified service partner.

· Disconnect the pay station from the main power before cleaning it.

· Moisten cloths only slightly to prevent fluid from entering the device. This would damage the

electronic boards and optics.

· Only use the recommended cleaning agents/tools and do not use solvents or scouring agents

that could affect the plastic and optics of the device.

· When using compressed air make sure to keep a distance of at least 20–30cm/8–12in to

the part to be cleaned to avoid any residue or liquid that could wet or coat the recycler's op-

tics. This may result in damaged sensors.

· Do not reconnect the equipment if the connection cable shows any damages or material fa-

tigue (e.g. porous cables).

While passing through the recyclers, coins and banknotes leave fibers, residues and dust on sensitive parts in the val-

idation area and on the cash paths. To ensure optimal performance, read here how to clean pay station parts that have

to be cleaned by the user.

Please contact your service partner if

· the message on the POS screen wants you to clean pay station parts not mentioned in this

chapter.

· issues related to preventative maintenance persist after the cleaning routine.

· the pay station has not been cleaned when invited by the screen message.
