32 Section 1A: Setting Up Your Palm® Treo™ 8 00W Smart Device
䢇By default, the Wi-Fi feature on your Treo disconnects and turns off when the screen is off.
If you change the default Wi-Fi settings, be sure to turn off the Wi-Fi feature when it is not
in use (see “Turning Wireless Services On and Off” on page340). You can also turn on
the Enable Power Savings option in Wi-Fi Settings to conserve battery power (see
“Customizing Wi-Fi Settings” on page 194).
䢇As with any wireless phone, if your phone is on and you’re in an area with no wireless
coverage, your Treo continues to search for a signal, and that consumes power. If you
cannot move to an area of better coverage, temporarily turn off your phone (see “Turning
Your Phone On and Off” on page35) .
䢇Turn down the screen brightness (see “Adjusting the Brightness” on page 322).
䢇Set your screen to turn off automatically after a shorter period of inactivity (see “Viewing
and Optimizing Power Settings” on page 338).
䢇Keep your battery and your Treo away from direct sunlight and other sources of heat.
Temperatures over 113 degrees Farenheit (45 degrees Celsius) can permanently reduce
the capacity and life span of any lithium-ionbattery.
Did you know? If your battery becomes fully drained, your information remains safely stored
on your Treo. Recharge the battery to access your information.
