a machine body having outer circumferential walls, and
an arrangement comprising:
a cash input/output unit having an interface for allowing depositing and dispensing of cash,
a cash handling unit, and
a cash storage unit,
wherein the cash input/output unit is configured to receive cash input by a user and transport the cash to the cash handling unit, and to receive cash from the cash handling unit and dispense the cash to the user, and wherein the cash handling unit is further configured to output cash to the cash storage unit,
wherein said cash input/output unit, said cash handling unit, and said cash storage unit being arranged in relation to each other along a displacement direction, and
wherein the arrangement is displaceable in relation to said machine body along the displacement direction between:
a closed position for which the outer circumferential walls of the machine body enclose the cash handling unit and the cash storage unit so as to prevent access thereto,
a service position for which the cash handling unit but not the cash storage unit protrudes from the machine body so as to allow access to the cash handling unit and prevent access to the cash storage unit, and
a cash access position for which both the cash handling unit and the cash storage unit protrude from the machine body so as to allow access to the cash handling unit and the cash storage unit,
wherein, when the arrangement is in the closed position, the outer circumferential walls of the machine body meet an outer surface of the cash input/output unit such that said outer circumferential walls and said outer surface of the cash input/output unit together define an outer seal for preventing access to the cash handling unit and the cash storage unit.
