Managing the Battery
3. Perform a normal reset (refer to “Performing a Normal
Reset” in Chapter 1).

It is recommended that you keep the iPAQ Pocket PC connected
to the Universal Desktop Cradle or AC Adapter when it is not
in use.
Preserving Battery Time
Adjusting the Standby Setting
Adjusting the Standby setting can preserve battery time. During
Standby, the unit turns off so very little power is being consumed.
This helps to preserve programs and data stored in RAM.
■
Lower Standby Period—Increases the usable battery time.
If you use the iPAQ Pocket PC for extended periods of time,
you can choose to select a lower Standby Period.
■
Higher Standby Period—Decreases the usable battery
time and allocates it for standby usage. If you leave your
iPAQ Pocket PC off for extended periods of time without
recharging it, you can choose to select a higher Standby
Period.
