Connecting to AC Power and Charging the Battery
Fully charge the battery before starting to use your Pocket PC for the first time.
1. Fit the converter plug to the AC adapter (
n
). Connect the mini-USB end of
the AC adapter to your device (
o
) and the other end to a wall outlet (
p
).
2. The amber indicator glows when charging is in progress. Do not disconnect
your Pocket PC from AC power until the battery is fully charged, as
indicated by the amber indicator going off. This will take a couple of hours.
When charging the battery for the very first time, charge it for at least 8
hours.
Whenever possible, keep your Pocket PC connected to the AC adapter and a
power source. Doing so keeps the battery charged.
CAUTION: For optimal performance of the lithium battery, take note of the following:
z
Do not charge the battery where the temperature is high (e.g. in direct sunlight).
z
There is no need to fully discharge the battery before charging. You can charge the
battery before it is discharged.
z
If you will not use the product for a long period of time, be sure to fully charge the
battery at least once every two weeks. Over discharge of the battery can affect the
charging performance.
NOTE: Your Pocket PC can also be charged when it is connected to a desktop computer
via the USB cable.
