I think when you put a UK card in the machine it switches to English instructions.

If you use a Portuguese card you need to know 'levantamentos' for cash withdrawal, 'pagamentos' if you are paying a bill, and 'consultas' to see transactions on the account.

Confirmar - confirm

Anular - cancel

Quer receber um talão - Do you want a receipt?

Anything else you can think of that you might need?

Red screen - "Lamentamos, mas neste momento não é possível efectuar o seu pedido"

means: the lines are busy, sod off. :P

Red screen - "O saldo da sua conta so lhe permite um levantamento de €xx"

means: your account balance will only allow a withdrawal of €xx
