How to Prolong Battery Life
■ Use the Toshiba Pocket PC with the AC adapter.
When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC under the following conditions,
the power consumption will be higher than normal. Please use the AC
adapter when:
■ The Toshiba Pocket PC is operated while connected to your
computer.
■ The Toshiba Pocket PC is operated with a storage card or with any
other optional equipment.
■ Select the short power-off time in the setting menu. This will shorten
the time the unit will remain on if not used. For more information, see
“Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC” in this chapter.
■ Turn off the front light.
■ Set the screen brightness to power save mode (Med Bright or low
Bright). Also shorten the light turn-off time. For more information, see
“Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC” in this chapter.
■ Use the Toshiba Pocket PC with an ambient temperature between
15°C (59°F) and 25°C (77°F). This temperature range is the most
effective for the built-in battery.
■ When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC in high or low temperature
environments, the operable time is shortened due to the decrease
of the built-in battery capacity.
Battery Life
The built-in battery has a limited life. Repeated charging/discharging of
the built-in battery gradually decreases operable time.
■ Do not leave the Toshiba Pocket PC in a place of high or low
temperature. It may shorten battery life.
If you have not used the Toshiba Pocket PC for several days, its battery
charge level reading may be inaccurate. Fully recharge the battery for 2-3
hours before using.
