Percent Key (+% and -%) Operations
Use the Percent keys to add a percentage surcharge or subtract a percentage from an item or the
subtotal of a sale. You can enter the amount of the percentage before pressing the -% or +% keys,
or you can program a preset percentage if you are consistently using the same percentage.
Programming determines whether it is possible to enter a percentage when the key is also
programmed with a preset percentage. See “+% and -% Key Programming” to set a preset
percentage.

2. Press the -% key:
-%
3. The discount is automatically subtracted.
