Changing the CPU Battery

The BEETLE POS systems are equipped with a lithium battery on the CPU

board to ensure data retention, the time and the setup parameters. The battery

should be changed approximately every five years.

Î When inserting the new battery, make sure the polarity is correct. This is

visibly marked in the socket. Incorrect replacement of the battery may lead

to the danger of explosion.

The battery is located in a socket in the CPU (see page 9). To gain access to

the battery, proceed as described in the according chapters of your BEETLE

User Manual.

 The lithium battery must be replaced only by identical batteries or types

recommended by Wincor Nixdorf.

 You can return the used batteries to your Wincor Nixdorf sales outlet.

 Batteries containing harmful substances are marked accordingly. The

chemical denotations are as follows: CD = Cadmium; Pb = Lead,

Li = Lithium.

This symbol on a battery tells you that batteries containing

harmful substances must not be disposed of as household

waste. Follow the country specific laws and regulations. Within

the European Union you are legally bound to return these

batteries to the service organisation where you purchased the

new battery.

Î The setup parameters must be reset each time the battery is changed.
