To prevent damage to the USB-C charging cable and the USB-C socket on the payment terminal, follow these guidelines:
Insert and remove the USB-C charging cable by holding the end that connects to the terminal or the power plug.
Do not insert or remove the USB-C charging cable in an upward, downward, left, or right direction.
Do not bend or fold the USB-C charging cable.
Do not use excessive force to insert or remove the USB-C charging cable.
Always inspect the USB-C charging cable and the USB-C socket on the payment terminal for foreign objects.
If the terminal operates in areas of high humidity, dust, or food residue, consider getting a charging station.
