CHAPTER 28 Common Questions
Handheld
Do not open your handheld; there are no serviceable parts inside. Opening your
handheld voids the warranty and is not recommended under any circumstances.
I want to see how much battery life I have left.
A battery icon appears at the top of Favorites and Applications views. Check the icon
periodically to see if your handheld needs to be recharged. If the battery becomes low, a message
appears on the screen prompting you to recharge the battery.
I’m not sure when I need to recharge my handheld.
We recommend that you recharge your handheld for at least half an hour every day. Ideally,
connect your handheld to a power source every night and recharge it while you sleep.
My battery is drained.
The memory on your handheld is designed to store your information even if the battery becomes
drained completely. When you recharge your handheld, all of your existing information, both in
program memory and on the internal drive, should appear.
My battery drains too quickly.
You can conserve battery life by doing any of the following:
• Reduce the brightness of the display.
• Reduce the Auto-off after interval.
• Use Keylock Preferences to prevent your handheld from being turned on accidentally.
• Minimize use of the expansion card slot.
• Turn the Bluetooth® feature off when you’re not using it, or turn the discoverable setting to off.
