Manually Monitor the Battery
You can manually monitor the battery power.
1. From the Start menu, tap Settings.
2. Tap System tab, and then Power icon.
3. Tap OK.
Charge the Battery
Because your iPAQ Pocket PC uses some power to maintain files
in RAM and the clock, you need to recharge the battery regularly.
Keep the iPAQ Pocket PC connected to the universal cradle or
the AC Adapter while you are at your desk.
The best policy is to keep the iPAQ Pocket PC connected to your
computer when working at your desk and carry your AC Adapter
and charging adapter plug with you when traveling.
Your iPAQ Pocket PC is shipped with a partial charge on the
battery. You may want to ensure that it is fully charged before
synchronizing.
Ä
CAUTION: Because most of the programs and data you install on
your iPAQ Pocket PC are held in memory (RAM), you will need to
reinstall them if the battery completely discharges.
✎
We recommend that you fully charge the battery prior to
synchronizing with your personal computer.
