Battery Saving Tip: Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Power >
Advanced tab, then tap the Turn off device if not used for checkbox
and set it to turn your i.roc x20 Pocket PC off after a short time of not
being used.
CAUTION: It is recommended that you do not allow the battery installed in your i.roc
x20 Pocket PC to discharge completely. Doing so does not harm your Pocket PC or
battery; however, you will lose all data not stored in File Store (ROM). Discharging the
battery completely is similar to performing a hard reset. Refer to
“Performing a Hard
Reset” in Chapter 1 for more information.
4.5 Power Saving Tips
Here are some power saving tips to help save energy in your
Pocket PC battery.
Set the backlight to go off quickly (10 or 30 seconds) after you stop
using your Pocket PC, or implement Power Save mode to turn off
the backlight completely. For more information, refer to “Changing
the Backlight Settings” later in this chapter.
Note: Adjusting the Backlight Brightness Level slider to the lowest level
that is still useable for the given lighting conditions can be the single
most important thing you can do to preserve battery life.
Leave your Pocket PC connected to AC power at all times when you’re
not using it. For more information, refer to “Charging with the AC
Adapter” earlier in this chapter.
