Appendix A
Maintaining Your Handheld
168
Battery considerations
Please note the following considerations for the battery in your handheld:
■
Under normal conditions, your handheld battery should remain charged by
placing it in the cradle for just ten to fifteen minutes each day. You can conserve
battery life by setting the backlight brightness to low, and changing the Auto-
off setting that automatically turns off the handheld after a period of inactivity.
See
■
If the battery becomes low in the course of normal use, an alert appears on the
handheld screen describing the low battery condition. If this alert appears,
perform a HotSync
®
operation to back up your data; then leave your handheld
in the cradle to recharge the unit. This helps prevent accidental data loss.
■
If the battery drains to the point where your handheld does not operate, it stores
your data safely for approximately one week. In this case, there is enough
residual energy in the battery to store the data, but not enough to turn on your
handheld. If your handheld does not turn on when you press the power button,
you should recharge the unit immediately.
■
If the battery drains and you have the unit in an uncharged state for an extended
period of time, you can lose all of the stored data.
■
There are no serviceable parts inside your handheld, so do not attempt to open
the unit.
■
If you ever dispose of your handheld, please dispose of it without damaging the
environment. Take your handheld to your nearest recycling center.
Resetting your handheld
Under normal circumstances, you will not have to use the reset button. On rare
occasions, however, your handheld may no longer respond to buttons or the
screen. In this case, you need to perform a reset to get your handheld running
again.
Performing a soft reset
A soft reset tells your handheld to stop what it’s doing and start over again. All
records and entries stored in your handheld are retained with a soft reset. After a
soft reset, the Welcome screen appears, followed by the Date and Time Preferences
screen (to set date and time).
