Ensure that the backup battery is in good condition before you
remove the main battery. If the backup battery is low or you
are not sure, connect to ac power before you remove the main

cable if it is attached, or remove it from the docking cradle
(optional on the HP Jornada 710).

2. Slide the battery release tab on the bottom of the HP

battery pack away from the device.

3. Insert the replacement battery pack and push firmly until it

Backup battery

The coin-sized, lithium ion backup battery does not provide
enough power to operate your HP Jornada. It is intended only to
protect your data until the main battery is recharged (up to a
week if the coin-cell battery is in good condition). When a low
battery warning message is displayed, immediately charge the
main battery to avoid data loss.

Ensure that the main battery is charged before you remove the
backup battery. If the main battery is low or you are not sure,
connect to ac power before you remove the backup battery.

To replace the backup battery

1. Turn the Jornada upside-down and open the

CompactFlash door.

2. Pivot the backup battery cover out of the way to

completely expose the backup battery.

The backup battery is under some spring tension. As you
attempt to remove it, cover the battery with your fingers
to prevent it from flying out of the compartment.
