Casio IT-3000 - Manual (Page 49)

E-47
The Magnetic Card Reader comes as standard with IT-3000M55E/M55U/M54E2.
Only use cards that are compatible with the ISO standards. The procedure for reading
cards is described below.
1. Remove the cover as shown in the illustration.
2. Insert the card all the way into the reader as shown in the illustration, and steadily
pass the card through the reader in the direction of the arrow.
Precautions During Use
• Cards may not be able to be read if they are passed through the reader too
rapidly.
• A reading error may occur if the speed at which the card is passed through the
reader changes suddenly.
• Do not allow magnets to come in close proximity to the magnetic card since this
can prevent data on the card from being read. In addition, do not stack
magnetic cards on top of each other.
• Cards that have been excessively misshaped or bent may not be able to be read.
• Soiling of the magnetic strip may make it difficult to read the card. If a card has
become soiled, wipe with a clean, soft cloth.
• Regularly clean the magnetic card reader by passing a cleaning card through
the reader to prevent excessive friction with cards. When using in a location
where there are low levels of dust, clean once a week and about once every 500
passes through the card reader.
• Install the cover when not using the magnetic card reader. The drip-proof
function of the magnetic card reader is not guaranteed if the cover is not installed.
