3 Managing Your Pocket PC
This chapter tells you how to effectively manage power, memory, settings, data
and programs of your Pocket PC.
3.1 Managing Power
A fully charged battery should provide power for up to 8 hours of use. The
operating time of a fully charged battery depends on how you are using the
Pocket PC. Some functions, such as using multimedia or operating a SD/MMC
card, may consume the battery power considerably.
Low Battery Signals and Actions
CAUTION:
z When the battery is very low, your device automatically sets the volume down as a
protection. Under such circumstances, you will not be able to turn up the volume unless
the battery is charged to a certain level of power.
z When you recharge the battery upon a warning of low power, you should charge for at
least 30 minutes. If you unplug the AC adapter soon, you may not have sufficient battery
power for your operation.
You can monitor the battery power by tapping
Æ
Settings Æ System Æ Power.
The remaining power is displayed on a status bar in the Power control panel.
When the battery is low, your Pocket PC will pop up a warning message. You
should save your data and recharge the battery immediately upon a warning of
low power; otherwise your Pocket PC will turn off automatically. You need to
connect the Pocket PC to external AC power for charging before you can use it
again.
