world. When you travel, you may need adapters to accommodate different electrical outlets, but the hp Jornada ac adapter will safely convert ac line voltage to the dc voltage required by your hp Jornada.

While your hp Jornada is connected to ac power, the main battery is charged automatically. The color of the LED indicates the status of the battery: amber indicates that the battery is charging, and green indicates that the battery is fully charged.

If you will not be using your hp Jornada for an extended period of time, be sure to charge the main battery fully (or connect to ac power) before you store your hp Jornada.

Turning Your hp Jornada On and Off

One of the most convenient features of hp Jornada is “instant on.” With instant on, there is no waiting for your hp Jornada to start up or shut down; you can start working immediately by pressing the power button or one of the hp hot keys.

You can also turn on your hp Jornada simply by tapping the touch screen. On the Power Preferences page in hp settings, select the Tap screen to power on check box.

When you are finished working, turn off your hp Jornada by pressing the power button. By default, your hp Jornada will turn off automatically after 1 minute of inactivity if it is not connected to an ac power source. You can use the Power control panel to change these settings. On the Start menu, tap Settings, tap the System tab, and then tap the Power icon.

Using the Hardware Buttons

The hardware buttons on your hp Jornada (that is, the buttons on the device itself, rather than buttons or icons that appear on the display) can each be used to perform several functions, such as turning on your hp Jornada or starting a particular program.
