1.2 Battery
Warning : To reduce risk of fire or burns, do
not disassemble, 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 to the local regulations.
Your PPC6600 contains a rechargeable Li-ion polymer battery
under the back cover. Battery power depends on whether you
are talking on the phone, using the PDA functions or if the
device is on standby.
Battery life estimates :
Talk-time: 3 ~ 4 hrs,
PDA: 15 hrs (approx.),
Standby: 168 hrs (approx.),
Data retention time: 72 hrs.
The above times are based on using one function at a time,
interchanging between functions will vary the battery life.
Data Retention
It is vital to keep your battery charged. Because your
PPC6600 does not have a hard drive, all data and any new
programs you install are stored in RAM. If the battery com-
pletely drains any data or new programs you installed will be
erased. Only the default programs on the device when you
bought it 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. The additional backup is designed to keep your
data safe when you remove the main battery. It will keep this
data safe for 20 minutes.
WARNING : BEFORE REMOVING THE MAIN
BATTERY, MAKE SURE THE BACKUP BATTERY
POWER REMAINS AT 50% OR ABOVE, BY
TAPPING → Settings → System tab →
Power
