Tips for Extending Battery Charge

When batteries are low, you will see a battery icon in the status bar of the Today screen. Replace or recharge low batteries as soon as possible. When main batteries are discharged, your data will be preserved by the backup battery. If the backup battery is discharged, you run the risk of losing the data on your Pocket PC.

You want your Pocket PC battery charge to last as long as possible, especially when you are on the road. Under normal conditions, you can get many hours of use from a single set of batteries or from a full charge. Here are a few tips to help you get the most from them.

Use External Power Whenever Possible

Use the AC adapter to plug your Pocket PC into external power whenever possible, especially when:

•Establishing a remote connection (some modems use a lot of power).

•Using the backlight feature of your Pocket PC display.

•Connecting to a desktop computer.

•Letting the notification light flash for extended periods.

Shorten Auto-Suspend Time

While on battery power, your Pocket PC automatically suspends operation if you have not touched the hardware buttons or used the stylus for a specified period. Maximize

battery life by shortening the time. Tap and then Settings. On the System tab, tap Power, and then adjust the On battery power setting.
