Tips

• Having difficulties with your drive-thru vehicle detection system? Try these two options first to help troubleshoot your drive-thru vehicle detection system:

1.       Try resetting the drive-thru system base station. If this does not resolve the problem with the drive-thru vehicle detection system, then proceed to try step two.

2.       Try unplugging the entire drive-thru system and rebooting.

• If the two options above did not work you may need to check for the following:

1.       Loose cable and electrical connections in your drive-thru vehicle detection system?

2.       Any frayed or exposed loop lead in wires?

3.       If your drive-thru menu board was moved or relocated without moving the detectors loops along with it, this could cause a connection problem.

4.       Inclement weather effect?

After running through this check list and nothing seems to resolve the issue with your drive-thru vehicle detection system, try calling CE Repairs at 877-731-0334 for free technical support, or to schedule an onsite service provider to help repair the problem.

Learning helpful preventative tips to keep your drive-thru equipment running smoothly, could end up saving you money and time. We have shared previous preventative tips for specific parts of your drive-thru equipment. This last installment we will share some tips on how to maintain your drive-thru battery charger. The battery charger is the life support of your drive-thru system, yet many of us may forget what an important role it actually plays in your daily drive-thru business. Without battery chargers we would not have batteries for our drive-thru headsets, therefore we would not be able to take any drive-thru orders. That being said, here are some helpful tips on how to maintain your batter charger's life.

• When cleaning the vent screen, located on the back of the charger, use a soft cloth so air can flow freely between the vents. The charger may have a fan, if so, make sure you leave enough clearance (6 inches should be fine), so the air can circulate.
• You want to house your battery charger on a clean, dry and flat surface. Always make sure to unplug the charger when no batteries are charging within the ports. When unplugging or handling the battery charger, make sure to have dry hands.
• Do not place metals near the charger, if the metal touches the two charging ports it could potentially short out the battery charger.
• When cleaning the entire battery charger monthly, dampen the soft cloth with window cleaner-do not spray cleaner directly onto the battery charger. To clean the ports of the charger, use a moistened swab or a pencil eraser.

I am a manager of several quick service restaurants in San Diego, CA. My weekly schedule is always hectic and jammed packed, with constantly visiting, checking up on the stores, and receiving updates from my employees.

I am sure that any manager or supervisor can relate when I say it is a nightmare having to deal with sending in the broken drive-thru equipment for repair and hoping it comes back fixed properly the first time around.

Battery Tips:

• Before you take out a battery or are inserting a new one into a belt pack, always turn off the drive-thru belt pack.
• If your system uses a NiCd battery, always wait until it is fully drained before recharging the battery. You should receive an alert to let you know the battery is almost depleted. If you recharge before it reaches this point it will reduce the life span and its ability to hold a charge.
• This same rule should be applied to when you are charging your batteries. Wait until the green light is lit up for the battery, indicating the charge is complete. This is when you may remove the battery from the charging station without damaging the life span of the battery itself. Although, it is ok to leave fully charged batteries on the charger until they are ready to be used.

Stay tuned next week for our second installment on more tips to help keep your batteries working properly and for a longer time!

Last week we began to give you some helpful hints and tips on how to keep your drive-thru equipment maintained and to help prevent having to send in for a drive-thru repair. Here are some more helpful tips on how to extend the lifespan of your drive-thru headsets.

Preventative Drive-Thru Headset Tips:

• Make sure that you do not force the mic booms to go any further than when you feel tension or resistance. Most mic booms do not swivel a full 360 degrees. Breaking a mic boom might not be covered by most warranties or it could possibly void a current warranty.
• When connecting the connector into the drive-thru belt pack, do not force the entry, it will only fit one way, therefore, no force will be necessary.
• Make sure to always store drive-thru headsets in a safe place and keep them away from any type of moisture, water or grease.
• To help prevent cross contamination during the cold months and seasons, continuously change out the ear pads and mic muffs on the drive-thru headsets.
• Make sure to always have the drive-thru headset cable is clipped on a part of your shirt, that way the cable will not hang loosely and potentially get damaged.

Hopefully some of these tips that we have shared with you will help prolong the life-span of your drive-thru headset. These preventative tips will hopefully also save you some money and time with sending in for a drive-thru repair. Check out CE Repairs for more helpful tips and deals for any drive-thru repair!

There are many aspects that go into running a smooth, efficient, and productive drive-thru restaurant. Every manager's goal is to have a successful quick service restaurant running smoothly on a daily basis, without any obstacles or problems to overcome. There are many preventative maintenance tips that you could do yourself at the restaurant that could help you save lots of time and money on drive-thru repairs.

Drive-Thru Headset Tips:

Some of these tips below can help you and your staff from having to send in drive-thru repairs for your drive-thru headsets.

• When removing a headset, it helps if you remove the headset from both the left and right sides, rather than removing it from one end and pulling the other side off. This will prevent from any strain to happen on the headband part of the headset and potentially damaging the wires, or the making the band loose in any way.
• Do not swing or play with the headsets from either side, this will prevent from damaging the size and wear of the headset, along with preventing any breakage occurring to the headset and wires.
• Always make sure to have an ear pad on the ear piece of the headset, this will help prevent any damage to happen to the speaker inside the ear piece. This will also help to keep debris and dirt out along with preventing muffled or distorted sound.
