1.2 Battery

Your SX66 contains a rechargeable Li-ion polymer battery. Battery power depends on whether you are talking on the phone, using the PDA, or if the device is on standby.

Battery life estimates:

nTalk-time:3 - 4 hrs.

nPDA: 15 hrs (approximate.).

nStandby: 168 hrs (approximate.).

nData retention time: 72 hrs.

The above are based on using one function at a time. Battery life may vary with switching between functions.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disas- semble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, heat above 60(140), or dispose of in fire or water. Replace only with manufacturer specified batteries. Recycle or dispose of used batteries as stipulated by local regulations.

Data retention

It is vital to keep your battery charged. Because your SX66 does not have a hard drive, all data and any new programs you install are stored in the RAM. If the battery completely drains, any data or new programs you installed will be erased. Only the default programs that came with the device at the time of purchase will remain.

To prevent this kind of data loss, a portion of the main battery will keep your data safe for 72 hours if your device runs out of power. An additional battery, the internal backup battery, is designed to keep your data safe when you remove the main battery. It will keep the data safe for 20 minutes.

NOTE: Be sure to check that the internal backup battery power remains at least at 50% OR ABOVE before you re- move the main battery by tapping the Start menu > Settings > the System tab > Power.
