•Synchronize e-mail and your address book on the netpad with the PC to keep them in step with each other.

•Back up your netpad files to the PC, then restore them from the PC to the netpad again, if needed.

1.4 Caring For The netpad

Screen

When used with the approved stylus, the netpad screen is very resistant to wear and impact and should last for a considerable time. Use of any object, other than the approved stylus, may result in damage to the netpad screen.

To maintain the life of the netpad screen, keep the screen clean. To clean the screen: switch off the netpad and use a soft, clean, dry cloth to gently wipe the screen. (If the netpad is set to turn on automatically when the screen is tapped, you should turn this preference off before cleaning the screen.)

Warning:

Under no circumstances use chemical solvents to clean the screen.

Charging

To avoid damage to the netpad or the netpad battery packs, use only Psion Teklogix approved chargers and docking stations.

Backup Battery

The netpad has a rechargeable backup battery designed to retain data while the main battery pack is charging or changed over.

The backup battery is trickle charged from the main battery pack and has a limited lifespan. To maximize the life of the backup battery, avoid excessive discharging and recharging of the backup battery by keeping the netpad battery pack fully charged.

Important: It both the main battery pack and the backup battery are allowed to fully discharge, all user data held in RAM will be lost.
