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 high. 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 screen light.
Set the screen brightness to power saving mode. 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 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 battery capacity.
Battery Life
The built-in battery has a limited life. Repeated charging/discharging of
the 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 before
using.
