Using the

Battery

The Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 device uses a single cell Li-Polymer battery or a

dual cell Li-Ion battery. The internal logic of the battery prevents both overcharging

and undercharging (a fault condition in which the battery level goes well below the

minimum acceptable charge and the battery becomes unusable).

Battery Features

The following are features of the battery:

• Single Li-Polymer cell for CM5 and two Li-Ion cells for CM5 printer.

• A safety circuit that:

• Prevents cell damage from overcharge, over-discharge, or overheating

• Activates when the battery is left in an unused device for extended periods

USB-C

power th

e security circuit of the device in case, the device is tampered,

and

the main

battery fails to charge. This extra battery has a life of 1 year.

• Do not store the device for more than 1 week without charging, else the

secondary battery gets discharged in turn reducing the life of the battery.

• Disconnecting and unplugging the device power pack, reduces the life of the

coin cell battery, which does not recharge and must be replaced if drained.

periods of time as this may permanently diminish the battery capacity
