Managing the Battery
Ä
CAUTION: Because most of the applications and data you install on
your Pocket PC are held in memory (RAM), you will need to reinstall
them if the battery completely discharges or if the battery is removed
from the unit for more than 15 minutes. Otherwise, when fully charged,
the internal backup battery will save the user installed data for up to 15
minutes when the standard battery is removed. Before removing the
battery, check to see that the internal backup battery is fully charged by
tapping Start > Settings > System tab > Power Icon.
You do not need to reinstall applications and data installed in the iPAQ
File Store folder because they are saved in nonvolatile memory.
Charging the Battery
Battery Saving Tips:
❏ Leave your Pocket PC connected to AC power at all
times when you’re not using it.
❏ Set your Pocket PC to turn off after a short time if not
being used.
❏ Set the backlight to go off quickly after you stop using
your Pocket PC.
❏ Turn off all wireless activities when not in use.
❏ Turn off the “Receive all incoming beams” setting and
receive infrared beams manually instead.
❏ You can program an Application Button to turn off the
screen when an MP3 is playing, saving battery power
used to run the screen. Tap Start > Windows Media >
Tools > Settings > Buttons. From the Select Function
drop-down list, tap Screen Toggle. Press either the
Contacts or Inbox application buttons on the front of your
iPAQ Pocket PC, then tap OK.
❏ Power off your Pocket PC when it is being charged to
allow it to charge at a faster rate.
