How to Prolong Battery Life

■Use the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 with the AC adapter.

Under the following conditions where the power consumption will be high, please use the AC adapter when:

■Operating while connected to your computer.

■Operating with a storage card or with any other optional equip- ment.

■In addition,

■Select the short power-off time in the setting menu to shorten the time the unit will remain on if not used (see "Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC" on page 52).

■Turn off the screen light.

■Set the screen brightness to power saving mode and shortening the light turn-off time (see "Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC" on page 52).

■Use your unit with an ambient temperature between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C). This temperature range is the most effec- tive for the battery.

■When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 in high or low temperature environments, the operable time is shortened due to the decrease of the battery capacity.

■You can save power if the wireless communication module is off.

Battery Life

The removable battery has a limited life. Repeated charging/discharging of the battery gradually decreases operable time. When the operable time has been diminished, it is time to replace the removable battery with a new one.

■Do not leave the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 in a place of high or low temperature. It may shorten battery life.

If you have not used the Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 for several days, its battery charge level reading may be inaccurate. Fully recharge the battery before using.
