When you program the tax status for a department,
tax will be automatically added to sales of items
assigned to the department according to the
programmed tax status for the department. You can
also enter tax manually.
There are two tax programming methods. The tax
rate method uses a straight percentage rate per
dollar. The tax table method requires tax break
information from your state or local tax offices. Use
the method which is acceptable in your state. You
can obtain necessary data for tax programming from
your local tax office.

Tax Rate Programming
The percent rate specified here is used for tax
calculation on taxable subtotals. Turn the mode
switch to the Z/PGM position and use the following
sequence to program the tax rate:
9
➝
#/
SBTL
➝ Tax number(1-4) ➝
@/TM
➝ R
➝
@/TM
➝ Q ➝
where R and Q represent the following.
R: Tax rate (0.0000% to 99.9999%) x 10000
Enter the rate in 6 digits (leading zeros may be
omitted). If the rate is fractional (e.g., 4 3/8%), it
should be converted to its decimal equivalent
(4.375) before entering.
Q: Minimum taxable amount (0.01 to 99.99) x 100
Smallest amount for which tax must be collected. In
some states, sales whose amounts are less than the
minimum taxable amount are not subject to tax. If
amounts $0.01 to $0.10 are not taxed, the value of
Q would be 11 (for $0.11), the lowest of the first
taxable category.

disconnection of the AC cord or power failure. Please
install three new “AA” batteries before programming
and operating the cash register. Once installed, the
batteries will last approximately one year. When it is
time to replace them, the “l” symbol will appear on
the display to indicate a low battery voltage. If the
symbol appears, you must replace them within two
days.
Install the batteries according to this procedure with
the AC cord connected:

the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
CAUTION
The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

Handling Cautions
Install the cash register in a location not subject to direct sunlight, unusual temperature
changes, high humidity, or splashing water.
Do not operate the cash register with wet hands. Water can cause internal component failure.
The cash register plugs into any standard wall outlet (120V AC ± 10%). Avoid connecting any
other electrical devices on the same electrical circuit since such connection could cause the
cash register to malfunction.
When cleaning the cash register, use a dry, soft cloth. Never use volatile liquids, such as
benzine or thinner. Chemicals can discolor or damage the cabinet.
For protection against data loss, please install three new “AA” batteries before using the cash
register. However, never forget you must initialize the cash register before installation of
batteries; otherwise damage to memory contents or malfunctioning of the register will occur. You
can start operating it only after initializing it and then installing batteries.
For complete electrical disconnection, pull out the main plug.

Programming the Tax Rate
Before you can proceed with registration of sales,
you must first program the tax that is levied in
accordance with the law of your state. Your cash
register comes with the ability to program four
different tax rates. In most states, you will only
need to program Tax 1. However, if you live in an
area that has a separate local tax (such as a Parish
tax) or a hospitality tax, your register can be
programmed to calculate these separate taxes.
In order to program the tax to be collected in
accordance with the law of your state, you must
specify the tax rate(s) and minimum taxable
amount(s).
Checking the Time and Date
You can display the time and date to check if they
are correctly set.
1. Turn the mode switch in the REG position.
2. Press the
@/TM
key once to display the time.
3. Press the
@/TM
key a second time to display the
date.
Setting the Date
In the Z/PGM mode, enter the date in 6 digits using
the month-day-year format. Press the

Maintenance
Batteries
This cash register provides a low battery symbol
(l) and a no battery symbol ( ) which appears on
the far left of the display in one of the following
situations:
Low battery symbol (l)
• When the voltage of the batteries installed in the
cash register is under the required level.
No battery symbol ( )
• When three batteries are not installed in the cash
register.
• When the batteries installed in the cash register
are dead.
When either of these symbols appear, check
batteries. If no batteries are installed, install three
new “AA” batteries at once. If batteries are already
installed, replace them with new ones as soon as
possible. If the AC power cord is disconnected or a
power failure occurs when the batteries are dead
or not installed, all the programmed settings will be
reset to the default settings and any data stored in
memory will be cleared.
