Getting Acquainted

Charge with the AC adapter

Because your Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC uses some power to maintain RAM and the clock, you need to recharge the battery regularly. Keep the Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC connected to the universal cradle or the AC adapter while you are at your desk. The best policy is to keep the Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC connected to your computer when working at your desk and carry your AC adapter and DC adapter plug with you when traveling.

CAUTION: Because most of the applications and data you install on your Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC are held in memory, you will need to reinstall them if the battery completely discharges.

Use the AC adapter to charge your optional expansion pack, if you have purchased one. For more information about expansion packs, see Expanding Functionality with Expansion Packs.

The standard adapter works in any household outlet. You can also purchase one that works in your car’s cigarette lighter or a 12-volt power outlet.

CAUTION: Use only Compaq recommended AC adapters.
