How shall I know when it is time to replace the batteries?
The XEA203 will display a low battery warning message “LOW BATTERY”
when the batteries are near to the end of their life. It will display the warning
message “NO BATTERY” when the batteries are past the end of their life, or are
not installed.
The “LOW BATTERY” warning message is normally displayed about 2 days
before the end of the batteries’ life. You should arrange to the replace the
batteries within this period to reduce the chance of losing programming and sales
data from your XEA203. If you see “NO BATTERY” displayed it is important
that you do not turn the XEA203 off until you have replaced the batteries. If you
do turn it off before you have replaced the batteries; you will loose all your
programming and sales data.
To replace the batteries, do the following.
1. Make sure the XEA203 is plugged in.
2. Remove the printer cover.
3. Open the battery compartment cover next to the paper roll cradle, and remove
the old batteries.
4. Install three (3) new alkaline batteries (AA size), in the battery compartment.
Be sure the positive and negative poles of each battery are facing in the correct
direction. When they are installed correctly, the low battery or no battery
message will disappear.
5. Close the battery compartment cover.
6. Replace the printer cover.
