OMNI 5XXX INSTALLATION GUIDE 33
CHAPTER 4
Maintenance
The Omni 5xxx has no user-maintainable parts.
Clean the
Terminal
To clean the terminal, use a clean cloth slightly dampened with water and a drop
or two of mild soap. For stubborn stains, use alcohol or an alcohol-based cleaner.
Teminal
Contacts
Gently swab the contacts with alcohol or contact cleaner to remove dirt. It is
important that the exposed contacts for the battery stay clean and unbent.
Card Readers
The magnetic and smart card readers require no regular maintenance. For card
reader service, contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
CAUTION
Never use thinner, trichloroethylene, or ketone-based solvents – they may
deteriorate plastic or rubber parts.
Do not spray cleaners or other solutions directly onto the keypad or terminal
display.
CAUTION
Avoid touching the contacts in the raised area in the center of the battery and the
recessed area on the terminal. Finger oils tarnish contacts, causing bad
connections. If the battery charge state or terminal power LEDs do not light when
the terminal is connected to the power supply or there is a high occurrence of bad
or incomplete data transfers, clean the contacts.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to clean the card readers. Doing so may void your warranty.
