DID YOU KNOW? If your battery ever becomes fully drained, your info remains safely stored on your Treo 750. Recharge the battery to access your info.

Maximizing battery life

Battery life depends on how you use your Treo 750. You can maximize the life of your battery by following a few easy guidelines:

•Charge your Treo 750 whenever you’re at your desk, or charge it overnight each day. The battery in your Treo 750 has a much longer useful life if you charge it frequently instead of waiting until it’s fully drained.

•If you spend a lot of time using the camera (if included), games, media players (including listening to music with wireless headphones using the built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology), eBooks, or other applications, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary.

•The wireless features (phone, email, messaging, and web) on your Treo 750 generally consume more power than the organizer features. If you don’t plan

to use the wireless features on your Treo 750 for a while, turn off your wireless services (see Turning wireless services on/off). You can forward calls to a different number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail (see Forwarding calls). To see if your wireless services are on, tap the phone-off icon, and then select Wireless Manager.

DID YOU KNOW? You can also see if your wireless services are on by pressing Menu (right action key) and selecting Wireless

Manager.

•If you are synchronizing email and other information directly with your corporate Exchange Server using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync®, set the synchronization interval to a maximum of every 15 minutes during peak times and every hour (or turned off completely) during non-peak times (see Setting the synchronization schedule).

•Turn off the Bluetooth feature when you do not need to make a Bluetooth connection (see Entering basic Bluetooth settings).
