Battery

I am having trouble turning on my iPAQ. What should I do?

Ensure the battery is fully charged. If the LED on your iPAQ is flashing red, it indicates a low battery charge. For best results, charge the battery fully. The solid green LED display indicates full battery charge.

Ensure the battery is correctly installed. Make sure that the connectors on the battery are aligned with the housing pins in the battery compartment. See Set up your HP iPAQ Glisten on page 5.

Ensure the battery connectors and housing pins are not damaged or dirty. If the battery connectors appear to be soiled or the housing pins appear bent or damaged, contact your dealer to get your unit repaired.

Try charging your battery using the AC adapter. For more information, see Set up your HP iPAQ Glisten on page 5.

How can I improve the battery life on my iPAQ?

The more applications and services you run, the more power the device will consume. Turn off all radio features that you aren’t currently using such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

The iPAQ will consume more power in areas with low or no coverage. To conserve power, turn off your iPAQ radios if you are in an area with no wireless service for any length of time.

Adjust email settings to improve system efficiency by configuring the device to synchronize only during business hours. See Battery saving tips on page 41.

If you have been using the same battery for 1–2 years, you should replace it with a new battery for optimal performance.

Avoid using the iPAQ in very high-temperature or low-temperature environments. The efficiency of a battery can be affected by extreme temperature conditions. To know more about the operating temperatures on your iPAQ, see Operating environment on page 169.
