MiFi X PRO 5G USER GUIDE 16
Charging best practices
For optimum battery health and life, Inseego does not recommend prolonged charging over an
extended period of time. Where possible, activate the Battery Preservation Mode (BPM) feature to help
prevent overcharging and preserve the integrity of your battery.
Inseego recommends the following best practices to ensure optimal battery performance and life:
•Minimise the amount of time the battery stays at 0% or 100%.
•Charge, operate, and store the device as close to normal room temperature as possible (15° to
27°).
•Store your MiFi with a battery strength between 30% - 80%.
Before using your MiFi, read the Battery Preservation Mode and Battery Tips sections that follow and the
battery safety information in the Safety Hazards and Proper Battery Use and Disposal sections at the end
of this guide.
CAUTION: Always use official OEM batteries and chargers that have been approved by Inseego for
optimal performance and safe operation of your MiFi.
Battery Preservation Mode
When activated, Battery Preservation Mode extends your battery life by maintaining a battery charge
level between 70% and 80%. This mode is strongly recommended if you frequently charge your device
for extended periods of time. When enabled, Battery Preservation Mode is auto-activated after an
extended period of approximately 16 hours of continuous power charge.
You can enable Battery Preservation Mode on the touchscreen (Menu > Settings > Battery Preservation
Mode) or on the Admin Web UI (Settings > Preferences> Turn on battery preservation mode).
Click OK. The Battery Preservation Mode icon on the status bar and a message on the InfoPanel
indicate that Battery Preservation Mode is on.

MiFi X PRO 5G USER GUIDE 17
Battery Preservation Mode automatically deactivates when you unplug the charger or power cycle your
MiFi.
Click OK.
Battery tips
Before operating your MiFi at the start of the day:
•Ensure the battery is fully charged.
•Find a location with optimal signal strength.
NOTE: Using the Charge Other Device feature depletes your battery faster than normal use.
WARNING! Always use official OEM approved batteries and chargers with your MiFi. The warranty does
not cover damage caused by non-approved batteries and/or chargers.
•Do not use sharp objects or use excessive force to remove the battery or to access the battery
compartment, this may damage the MiFi and the battery.
•The battery discharges more rapidly as additional devices access your MiFi.
•Battery life depends on the network, signal strength, temperature, features, and accessories you
use.
•New batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time may take more time to charge.
•When storing your battery, keep it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place.
•When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature.

MiFi X PRO 5G USER GUIDE 18
•Never expose batteries to temperatures below -20°C or above 60°C.
•Never leave the MiFi in an unattended vehicle where it can get too hot or too cold.
•Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles.
•It is normal for batteries to gradually wear down and require longer charging times. If you notice
a change in your battery life, it is probably time to purchase a new battery.
Replacing the battery
CAUTION: Whenever you remove or insert the battery, ensure your MiFi is not connected to any device
or power source. Never use tools, knives, keys, pens or any type of object to force the door open or to
remove the battery. Using any of these types of objects could result in puncturing the battery.
To remove and replace the battery:
1. Insert a fingernail at the edge of the battery cover and lift and remove the battery cover. Set the
cover aside.
2. Insert your finger into the battery removal divot and lift the battery out of the battery
compartment.
3. Align the gold contacts on the new battery with the gold contacts on the MiFi and gently slide
the battery into place.

MiFi X PRO 5G USER GUIDE 19
4. Replace the cover by setting it on the MiFi where the notches align, then press on the cover until
it clicks into place and is flat across the entire bottom surface.
Replacing the SIM card
Your SIM card is a small rectangular plastic card that stores your phone number and important
information about your wireless service. The MiFi X PRO 5G supports only Nano SIM cards.
NOTE:Should your SIM card be lost or damaged, contact your network operator.
To remove the SIM card:
1. Insert a fingernail at the edge of the battery cover and lift and remove the battery cover. Set the
cover aside.
2. Remove the battery from the battery compartment.
3. Lift the SIM access tab by placing a fingernail underneath the white arrow and lifting the tab up
and to the right.

MiFi X PRO 5G USER GUIDE 20
4. Carefully slide the SIM card out of the SIM card slot.
To place a new SIM card:
5. If necessary, remove the SIM card from the outer card, being careful not to touch the gold-
coloured contacts.
6. Slide the SIM card into the slot notch first, with the contact points facing down. Close the SIM
access tab, place the battery in the battery compartment and replace the cover. The SIM card
MUST remain in the SIM card slot when in use.
CAUTION: Do not bend or scratch your SIM card. Avoid exposing your SIM card to static electricity,
water, or dirt.
Unlocking the SIM card
You can create a PIN code to lock your MiFi SIM card on the Admin web UI (Settings > Advanced
Settings > SIM). When the SIM is locked, your MiFi will not have access to the Internet. A display appears
in the InfoPanel of the Home screen.
Tap the message to unlock the SIM card. Enter the PIN and tap Enter.
Or you can tap Unlock SIM from the Help menu.
CAUTION: If you run out of PIN attempts, your SIM is PUK (personal unblocking key) locked and you
must contact your network operator for the PUK code. You must enter the PUK code in the Admin web
UI. If you enter the wrong PUK code, your SIM card will be permanently locked.
Resetting your MiFi
You can reset your MiFi to factory settings using the Reset button on the MiFi, from the MiFi
touchscreen, or from the Admin web UI.
CAUTION: Resetting returns your MiFi to factory settings, including resetting the Wi-Fi name and
password and Admin password. This disconnects all devices.
