If the taximeter is in sleep mode, the taximeter may ask for you to enter a pin number. If the taximeter has no pin numbers programmed, it will power up into the For-Hire mode.
If you see this, you must enter a pin number or the taximeter will not work.
Enter your 5 digit pin number. Use the tariff button to move from digit to digit and use the mode button to increment the flashing digit. Once you have your 5 digit pin number displayed press the extras button to enter it. If the number is valid the taximeter will now start up in the For Hire mode.
