Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

  1. (a)

    Each time a category 1, 2 or 3 euro banknote is processed, the machine must stop the processing immediately and keep that euro banknote in a position that avoids any physical contact with authenticated euro banknotes.

  2. (b)

    The result of the authenticity check must be indicated for any single euro banknote of category 1, 2 or 3 on a display. As the machine cannot physically separate category 1,2 and 3 euro banknotes into different output stackers, they must all be considered and treated as category 2 euro banknotes.

  3. (c)

    The machine must check for the presence of a category 1, 2 or 3 euro banknote when it stops processing, and processing can only be resumed after the physical removal of the category 1, 2 or 3 euro banknote by the operator.

  4. (d)

    For each stop of the processing mode no more than one category 1, 2 or 3 euro banknote can be accessible to the operator.
