申し訳ございません、千円札と硬貨のみになります。あちらに両替機がございます。
もうしわけございません、せんえんさつとこうかのみになります。あちらにりょうがえきがございます。
I apologize, it only accepts 1,000 yen bills and coins. There is a change machine over there.
Gesture & etiquette
Holding up the 5,000 yen bill and pointing to the vending machine's bill slot.
Do not try to force bills into the slot if they are not accepted. Look for a change machine (両替機 / ryōgaeki) nearby.
