On the meter screen you will see the hours you can park, maximum time limit and tariff fee.

3. Enter your registration plate

Enter your registration plate into the machine. Check that you have entered this correctly before proceeding.

4. Pay

Select ‘credit card’ payment method from the screen and follow the on-screen prompts.

5. Select time

Select the amount of time you would like to pay for.

To add time, press the arrow on the right. To remove time, press the arrow on the left.

Press the ‘OK’ button to continue.

When you see the required time displayed, press the green ‘OK’ button.

If the ‘OK’ button is not pressed within 20 seconds, the transaction will cancel and your card will not be debited.
