CHAPTER 26

Customizing Your Handheld

Conserving battery power

You can save battery power by preventing your handheld from turning on accidentally and by
adjusting the Power Preferences settings.

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.

Preventing your handheld from turning on by accident

Does your handheld turn itself on accidentally in your briefcase, pocket, or purse? You can lock
the buttons on the front of your handheld to prevent this from happening and to prevent the
battery from draining.
