Information

Connect the terminal in to a known-good power supply (if you have one) to 
see if this clears the problem.

Recharge or replace the battery. (For V

x

610 terminals only.)

If the problem persists, contact your local VeriFone representative for 
assistance. 

V

x

610 Terminal

Does Not Start

Ensure that you press the ENTER/ON key for approximately 3 seconds, until 
the unit lights up.

Ensure that the smart battery charge state is not below the critically low level. 

Recharge or replace the smart battery.

610 Smart

Battery Will Not

Charge

Each new V

x

610 smart battery must receive a full charge to initialize its full charge 

capacity.

Printer Does Not

Print

If the printer does not work properly:

Check battery status or terminal power connection. The printer will not print if 
there is an insufficient charge remaining in the battery to complete the print 
operation. (For V

x

610 terminals only.)

Check if the printer is out of paper and that the roll is properly installed. Open 
the paper roll cover and install a new roll of printer paper or ensure that the roll 
is feeding from the bottom.

Verify that the printer roller and paper roll dust cover are properly installed.

If the problem persists, contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.

NOTE

Allow the V

x

610 terminal to remain connected to the power pack for 6 hours to 

ensure the battery receives a full charge.

Conserve battery power by turning the V

x

610 terminal off when not in use. If the 

terminal will not be used for several days, remove the battery from the terminal as 
it continues to discharge even when the terminal is turned off.

NOTE

The V

x

610 terminal automatically shuts off when the smart battery reaches the 

critically low

 charge state. If this occurs, the smart battery must recharge a 

minimum of 1/2 hour before it can power the terminal. 

It may take several 

recharge attempts to reset the safety circuit

 when charging a smart battery that 

has been discharged below this critical state.
