connected to your PC. When the handheld is charging, the battery
icon will change to a charging icon. Once the handheld is fully
charged, the battery icon will replace the charging icon. See page 35
for a list of handheld status icons.
The handheld can be kept at a full charge by “topping up” the
battery every day for 10-15 minutes. From an empty battery, a full
charge can be achieved in approximately 3 hours. It is not necessary
to drain the battery completely before recharging.
If the battery level becomes too low, the signal strength bars (located
in the top right corner of the
Home
screen, next to the battery icon)
will be replaced by “BAT”. This is an indication that it is time to
recharge the handheld. In this state, all radio functions, such as
sending and receiving email, will be disabled until the battery is
recharged.
Turning on your handheld
When you receive your handheld, you must first insert it into the

can view the strength of the battery in the top right corner of the
Home
screen.) See page 53 for more information on connecting your
handheld to your PC.
