Important notes
The modular POS system BEETLE /NetPOS conforms to the current safety
standards for data processing equipment.
nIf this device is taken from a cold environment into the operating room,
moisture condensation may form. The device must be absolutely dry
before being put into service; an acclimatization period of at least two
hours must therefore be observed.
nThis device is equipped with a safety-tested power cable and may be
connected only to a prescribed grounded-contact power socket.
nWhen setting up the device, ensure that the power socket on the device
and the grounded-contact power socket are easily accessible.
nTo disconnect the device from the supply voltage completely, switch off
the device and disconnect the power plug.
nEnsure that no foreign objects (c.g. office clips) find their way into the
device, as this may lead to electric shocks or short-circuits.
nNever plug in or unplug data communication lines during
thunderstorms.
nProtect devices from vibrations, dust, moisture and heat.
nAlways dispose of used parts, such as batteries, in an environmentally
safe manner.
nThe lithium battery must be disposed of in accordance with local
regulations for special waste.
nIn emergencies (e.g. damaged housing or damaged power cable,
penetration by liquids or foreign bodies), the device must be switched
off immediately, the power plug disconnected and the Customer
Service of Wincor Nixdorf (WN) or your dealer must be notified.
nThe device may only be repaired by authorized qualified personnel.
Unauthorized opening of the device and inexpertly carried-out repairs
may not only seriously jeopardize the safety of the user, but also cancel
all warranty and liability agreements.

ABOUT THIS MANUAL
Recycling the BEETLE /NetPOS
Environmental protection does not begin when
it comes time to dispose of the BEETLE; it
begins with the manufacturer. This product was
designed according to our internal norm
“Environmental conscious product design and
development”
The modular BEETLE /NetPOS System is manufactured without the use of
CFCs and CCHS and is produced mainly from reusable components and
materials.
The processed plastics can, for the most part, be recycled. Even the
precious metals can be recovered, thus saving energy and costly raw
materials.
Please do not stick labels onto plastic case parts. This would help us to
re-use components and material.
You can protect our environment by only switching on your equipment when
it is actually needed. If possible, even avoid the stand-by-mode as this
wastes energy, too. Also switch your equipment off when you take a longer
break or finish your work.
At this time, there are still some parts that are not reusable. Wincor Nlxdorf
guarantees the environmentally safe disposal of these parts in the
Recycling Center, which is certified pursuant to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
So don’t simply throw your BEETLE POS system on the scrap heap when it
has served its time, but take advantage of the environmentally smart,
up-to-date recycling methods!
Please contact your competent branch or the department environmental
protection for information on how to return and re-use devices and
disposable materials under the following fax number:
Fax: +49 (0) 5251 826309
We look forward to your fax.
