3 Managing the Battery Your iPAQ Pocket PC is shipped with a rechargeable battery that is partially charged. It is recommended that you fully charge the Pocket PC battery before setting up the unit, and recharge regularly. Your Pocket PC uses some power to maintain files in RAM and the clock. While working at your desk, keep the Pocket PC and AC Adapter connected through the USB Synchronization Common cradle.

0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ 3. Insert the top of the battery cover into the top of the battery compartment 1. 4. Press the bottom of the battery cover into place until it clicks 2. Ä CAUTION: The cover must be in place for the Pocket PC to operate. If the battery cover is not in place when you press the Power button, the Pocket PC will not power on. If the battery is fully discharged, you must connect the AC Adapter to the Pocket PC to fully charge it before continuing.
0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ Removing the Battery Ä CAUTION: Before removing the battery, use iPAQ Backup or ActiveSync to back up data on your Pocket PC. If you need to clear the memory during the removal process, you will be able to restore the data. To prevent losing information, you can also copy user-installed applications to the iPAQ File Store folder. For more information on the File Store, refer to Chapter 4, in section “Using iPAQ File Store Folder.” To remove the battery: 1.
0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ 3. Lift the left side of the battery up and remove it from the Pokcet PC. Ä CAUTION: Because most of the applications and data you install on your Pocket PC are held in memory (RAM), you will need to reinstall them if the battery completely discharges or if the battery is removed from the unit for more than 15 minutes. Otherwise, when fully charged, the internal backup battery saves the user-installed data for up to 15 minutes when the standard battery is removed.
0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ Ä CAUTION: Use only HP recommended AC adapters. To charge your Pocket PC using the AC Adapter: 1. Insert the AC Adapter plug into the AC Charger adapter 1. 2. Plug the AC Adapter into an electrical outlet 2. 3. Insert the AC Charger adapter into the bottom of the Pocket PC 3. Ä CAUTION: To avoid damaging your Pocket PC or the AC Adapter, check to be sure all connectors are properly aligned before connecting them. 4.
0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ Charging with the HP iPAQ Cradle and AC Adapter Use the HP iPAQ cradle to charge your Pocket PC. It is not necessary to synchronize your Pocket PC before charging it. NOTE: To charge your Pocket PC using the HP iPAQ cradle: 1. Plug the AC Adapter into an electrical outlet 1 and connect the other end of the AC Adapter to the AC connector on the HP iPAQ cradle 2. 2. Slide the bottom of your Pocket PC into the HP iPAQ cradle 3 and push firmly to seat it.
0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ The amber charge light on the front of the Pocket PC blinks while the battery is recharging and turns solid amber (nonblinking) when the battery is fully charged. NOTE: Charging with the HP iPAQ Cradle and USB Cable An alternative method of charging the Pocket PC is to charge the unit by using a USB cable. However, because this charging method drains the host battery (i.e., laptop), you must enable USB charging on the Pocket PC before you can charge the unit.
0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ 4. Connect one end of the USB sync cabe to the bottom of the Pocket PC. 5. Connect the USB cable to an available USB Port on your USB powered device, such as a laptop. The Pocket PC charges slower when using an USB cable than with an AC Adapter. NOTE: Charging a Spare Battery Battery Saving Tip: To ensure you always have battery power available, invest in an extra Standard Slim Battery or Extended Battery. These batteries can be charged in the HP iPAQ Battery Charger.
0DQDJLQJ WKH %DWWHU\ NOTE: If you connect another Pocket PC while you are charging a spare battery, charging time increases. Depending how many units you have hooked up, it can take from up 30 hours to charge the battery. Manually Checking the Battery Charge Level To manually monitor the battery power: 1. From the Start menu, tap Settings > System tab. 2. Tap Power > Battery tab. If the battery charge level is low, connect to AC power using the HP iPAQ Cradle and the AC Adapter, or change the battery.
