To charge the battery
Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles. You can charge the battery in
one of the following ways:
•
Connect your device directly to an electrical outlet using the AC adapter.
•
Plug the sync cable to the USB port on your PC and to the sync connector on your device.
•
Connect the USB cradle to an electrical outlet or your PC, and use the cradle to charge the battery.
Charging is indicated by a solid amber light on the LED indicator. When power is on, a charging icon
(
) also appears on the Today screen.
After the battery has been fully charged, the LED indicator becomes green and a full battery icon
(
) appears on the Today screen.
Check the battery power
•
Tap the battery level icon (
) on the Today
screen. The Power Settings screen will then open
where you can see the current battery power level.
When the battery power gets very low, a warning
message will be displayed. When you see this,
immediately save your data by synchronizing with your
PC, or save your data on a secondary storage card, and
then turn off your device. Do not attempt to restart
your device until you have connected it with the power
adapter.
