Installing the Battery

The Pocket PC has a small internal backup battery that allows you to change the main battery without losing RAM data (user-installed programs and data) as long as it is replaced immediately.

It is recommended that you fully charge the iPAQ Pocket PC battery before setting up the unit, and recharge regularly. Your Pocket PC uses some power to maintain files in RAM and the clock. While working at your desk, keep the Pocket PC and Charger Adapter connected through the desktop cradle. When you travel, it is recommended that you carry the AC Adapter, Charger Adapter plug, or an optional spare battery with you.

Your iPAQ Pocket PC is shipped with the battery partially charged.
