Prolonging Battery Life
Note the following considerations for the battery in your
PDA phone:
• Under normal conditions your PDA phone battery should
remain charged when you place it in the desktop holder for
just a few minutes each day. You can conserve your battery
life by doing any of the following:
- Reduce the time of the backlight feature. See page 247 for
more information.
- Change the Auto-off setting that automatically turns the
PDA phone off after a period of inactivity. See page 247 for
more information.
- Minimize accessing the expansion card slot.
• If the battery becomes low in the course of normal use, an
alert appears on the PDA phone screen, describing the low
battery condition. If this alert appears, perform a HotSync
operation to back up your data; then leave your PDA phone
in the desktop holder or connect the travel charger to
recharge the unit. This helps prevent accidental data loss.
• If the battery drains to the point that your PDA phone does
not operate, it stores your data safely for about a week. In
this case there is enough residual energy in the battery to
store the data, but not enough to turn your PDA phone on. If
your PDA phone does not turn on when you press the power
button, you should recharge the unit immediately.
• If your battery drains and you have the unit in an uncharged
state for an extended period of time, you may lose all your
stored data.
• There are no serviceable parts inside your PDA phone, so do
not attempt to open the unit.
• If you ever dispose of your PDA phone, please dispose of it
without damaging the environment. Take your PDA phone to
your nearest environmental recycling centre.
