Turning Treo on and off
You can use the Palm OS® features of your Treo independently of the wireless
features and applications. Therefore, the screen and Wireless Mode are designed to
be turned off and on separately.

Turning the screen on and off

1. Press the Screen button to turn on the screen.
2. Briefly press the Screen button to turn off the screen.

Turning Wireless Mode on and off

Wireless Mode allows your Treo to connect to the Verizon network so that you can
make and receive phone calls and use other wireless services.
1. Press and hold the Wireless Mode button to turn on Wireless Mode. You will
hear a series of ascending tones. When Wireless Mode is on, your Treo connects to
a mobile network, and you can use the phone and Internet features (if supported
by the local network).
2. Press and hold the Wireless Mode button again to turn off Wireless Mode. You
will hear a series of descending tones. When Wireless Mode is off, your Treo is not
connected to the Verizon network. You can still use the organizer and other Palm
OS features. This is ideal for airplane flights and for maximizing battery life.

backlight for nighttime use.
The keyboard backlight
activates automatically
when the screen turns on,
but shuts off if the
keyboard is not in use.
When the screen is on,
press Option, then P to
manually activate the
keyboard backlight.
