S1E2L - Maintain battery performance

Storing payment terminals for longer periods of time can reduce the capacity of the battery or damage it permanently.

To prevent battery degradation:

1.  Check the storage conditions:

• Store the terminals in a cool, dry place.

• Keep the terminals away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

• Avoid overcharging - do not store terminals with battery levels over 70 percent.

• Avoid discharging - do not store terminals with battery levels below 40 percent.

2.  Inspect the batteries regularly:

• Every six months, check for battery leakage or swelling.

• Recharge batteries to the optimal level.

In case of battery failure, you can return or replace the terminal. For certain models, you can order spare batteries.

When returning a payment terminal, make sure to dispose of the faulty battery according to your local regulations. Do not include the faulty battery in the return package as it can lead to leakage and thermal discharge.
