Battery
The Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 device has one primary USB-C port used for power
and download.
Figure 3The Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 Primary USB-C Port
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

use any standard USB charger.
Do not plug the power pack into an outdoor outlet or operate the device outdoors.
During a transaction, disconnecting the power by unplugging the device from a

To protect against possible damage caused by lightning strikes and electrical
surges, consider installing a power surge protector.
Install a paper roll before you can process transactions that require a receipt.
The Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 Printer Stand uses a roll of 58 mm x 40 mm, singleply, thermal-sensitive paper.
A pink out-of-paper indicator line appears on the edge of the paper before the end
of the roll. After this line appears, there is enough paper remaining on the roll to
conclude at least one more transaction.
To install a paper roll
A message is always displayed to indicate when the printer is out of paper.
Poor-quality paper can jam the printer and create excessive paper dust. To order
high-quality Verifone paper, refer to Accessories and Documentation.
Store thermal paper in a dry, dark area. Handle thermal paper carefully: impact,
friction, temperature, humidity, and oils affect the color and storage
characteristics of the paper.
Never load a roll of paper with folds, wrinkles, tears, or holes at the edges.

Never use thinner, trichloroethylene, or ketone-based solvents – they may cause
deterioration of plastic or rubber parts.
Do not spray cleaners or other solutions directly on the device display.
Dirt accumulation can lead to MSR reading problems unless you clean the
magnetic stripe reader (MSR) on a regular basis (daily to once a week, depending
on usage).
Clean the MSR using commercially available card reader cleaning cards or using
Verifone’s recommended MSR-cleaning card (PN 02746-02).
If using a commercially available cleaning card, use ONLY an approved MSR
cleaning card made specifically for POS MSR terminals or Petroleum MSR card
readers.
Do not attempt to clean the Smart Card Reader (SCR). Doing so may void any
warranty. For smart card reader service, contact your Verifone distributor or
service provider.
If you find foreign objects in the SCR, send your terminal to a Verifone authorized
repair center.
Do not use Verifone’s recommended MSR-cleaning card (PN 02746-02) or
commercially available card reader cleaning cards with the SCR.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDELINES
NOTE
Battery Does Not Charge
Battery Does Not
Charge
The Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 battery must initially receive a full charge to ensure
proper operation.
•Allow the Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 device to remain connected to the power
pack for eight hours to ensure the battery receives a full charge.
•Li-Polymer and Li-Ion batteries are not affected by shallow charging.
Furthermore, when the device has no external power source or battery the
coin cell battery provides power to the security circuit.
•Disconnecting and unplugging the device power pack reduce the life of the
coin cell battery, which does not recharge and must be replaced if drained.
•Conserve battery power by turning the Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 device off
when not in use. Do not let the battery charge fall below 10% for extended
periods of time as this may permanently diminish the battery capacity.
Recharge the battery by attaching USB end of the power pack to the device
and plugging the other end of the power pack into a wall outlet.
•The Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 device automatically shuts off when the battery
reaches the critically low charge state.
•Please charge the device once a week even when the device is not in use.
Blank Display
Transactions
Fail to Process
When the Verifone Carbon Mobile 5 device display screen does not show correct
or clearly readable information:
•When the battery connection has some connection issue.
•If the display doesn't turn on, press and hold the power key for 8-10 seconds.
•Connect to the charger.
•If the problem persists, contact your local Verifone service provider.
There are several reasons why the device may not be processing transactions.
Use the following steps to troubleshoot failures.
Check the Magnetic Card Reader
•Perform a test transaction using one or more different magnetic stripe cards to
ensure the problem is not a defective card.
•Ensure that you are swiping cards properly. With the Verifone Carbon Mobile 5
card reader, the black magnetic stripe on the card should face down and
outward (see Figure 7).
•Process a transaction manually. If the manual transaction works, the problem
may be a defective card reader.
