1 Operating Environment and Safety
This section provides tips on using and protecting your terminal.
The CT100 Contactless Terminal is a portable terminal for performing transactions remotely. Since it is a
portable unit, location is not a factor. However, follow the rules established in the environment and safety
sections.
Environment
− Do not leave the terminal in a non-climate-controlled vehicle. The CT100 Contactless terminal is highly
sensitive to temperature extremes. Subjecting the terminal to temperatures outside the stated operating
range can void your warranty
− Do not use the CT100 Contactless terminal where there is moisture or high humidity, chemicals or oils,
or excessive heat or dust
− Avoid electrical appliances or other devices that emit excessive voltage fluctuations or electrical noise
(for example, air conditioners, electric motors, neon signs, high-frequency or magnetic security devices,
or computer equipment)
− Keep the CT100 Contactless terminal away from anything that radiates heat, such as a stove or motor
− Damage to the unit from exposure to sun, rain, or dust may void your warranty
− Do not use the CT100 Contactless terminal near water, including bathtubs, basins, kitchen sinks or
laundry tubs, in a wet basement, or near swimming pools.
Safety Concerns
The following guidelines help to ensure your safety and the safety of others:
− Do not connect the power and phone cables across a walkway or high traffic area
− Avoid using the CT100 Contactless terminal during electrical storms.
− If using the CT100 Contactless terminal while charging the battery, ensure that the unit is placed close
enough to a power outlet so that the power adapter readily reaches the unit.
− Don’t disassemble the CT100 Contactless terminal, or the AC adapter. Only qualified technicians may
service these devices.
− Do not plug the power pack into an outdoor outlet.
− Do not short-circuit, disassemble, crush, or puncture the battery.
