CHAPTER 2

Getting to Know Your Handheld

• Do not expose your handheld to very hot or cold temperatures, including placing it near

a heater, leaving it in the trunk of a car, or setting it by a window in direct sunlight.

• Do not carry or use your handheld at extremely high altitudes, unless you’re in an airplane.

Conserving battery power

If you see an alert on the screen warning you that the battery is low, recharge your handheld.
Also recharge your handheld if it doesn’t turn on when you press the power button.

The memory on your handheld is designed to store your information even if the battery

becomes drained to the point that you cannot turn on your handheld. When you recharge your
handheld, all of your existing information reappears.

Conserve battery life by doing any of the following:

Adjust the screen brightness

Reduce the Auto-off setting

Use Keylock to prevent your handheld from turning on by accident

• Stop music or video playback when not in use

Respond to or cancel alerts promptly

Turn off Bluetooth wireless technology and Wi-Fi functionality when not in use

Minimize use of the expansion slot

Tip

Be sure to charge your
handheld for a full three
hours if it does not turn
on when you press the
power button.
