power supply bricks for the remaining components are at the top of the
internal column, mounted on the right wall (Individually labeled).

wall (Red circle). The power button is on the bottom of the computer, facing

the drawer lock is unlocked, press the button on the alarm. To disengage the

To remove the cash box, lift and pull on the red handle.
To reseat the cash box, slide the box into the bracket underneath the cash
acceptor (Yellow area). The bill acceptor will feed twice to confirm proper
reconnection.
Cleaning Your Kiosk Enclosure
Enclosure, Painted Surfaces, and Graphics
Should the kiosk enclosure require general cleaning, it can be wiped down with a non-abrasive cloth moistened with a mild cleaning product or soap and water.
- Do not clean the enclosure with solvent-based products, as they may damage the finishes or graphics
- Do not wipe the enclosure with paper towels, as the wood fibers can cause a scuffed appearance
Touch Screen and Displays
Care should be taken when cleaning touch displays to eliminate the possibility
of scratching the display surface. It is recommended that a microfiber cloth
and a mixture of 70% isopropyl alcohol, 30% water be used to clean the
display.
- Do not clean the enclosure with solvent-based products, as they may damage the touch interface
- Do not wipe the screen with paper towels, as the wood fibers can cause a scuffed display and degrade touch interface performance
Internal Components
The internal components should only be dusted using a can off compressed air
or by vacuuming the kiosk interior. Care should be taken not to disturb the
internal cabling/wiring. Attention should be given to PC grill openings and
exhaust ports when clearing dust or build-up.
- Do not clean any of the internal components or electronics with solvents or solvent-based products
- Do not power vacuum cleaners or any other devices via the kiosk’s internal power strip
