A26391-K139-Z120-2-7619 1
May I introduce myself?
My name is Pocket LOOX 610. I am part of the Pocket PC family, also called handhelds.
I'm sure you've already noticed that I'm flat, handy and light-weight. Now I'd like to draw your
attention to my extensive, diverse capabilities.
I am equipped with the Office applications MS-Word, Excel and Outlook - naturally all in the Pocket
version. In Outlook you can not only receive and send e-mails, you can also manage your
appointments and let me remind your of the things you have to do. Of course, you can also enter
your address list in me so that you can access names (e-mail) addresses and telephone numbers
when you're on the go. You can enter notes in me in writing or verbally as with a dictaphone.
Memory cards, which you can buy in various sizes, ensure that I can also reliably hold and retain
large amounts of data.
In the office you can then effortlessly transfer all your data and newly created documents to your
notebook or PC. To do this, just insert me in my cradle, install ActiveSync on your PC and you're
ready to synchronise your data. In addition, a short stay in the cradle also gives me new power, as
my battery will be charged while I'm there. If you don't have your cradle at hand, for example in a
hotel room, it doesn't matter. You can synchronise your data using the ActiveSync cable via the
infrared interface or with BLUETOOTH, and you can charge my battery with the power adapter.
And since life isn't all work and no play, I offer you additional functions as well. You can read your
favourite book quite comfortably on my display or use me as an MP3 player. Insert the memory card
of your digital camera in the suitable card slot and you can view the photos you just took on my
display.
Have you already noticed that I provide you with two slots? You can use different cards at the same
time. And how about the combination memory card and GSM/GPRS CompactFlash card? Or you
can combine two memory cards for maximum memory capacity.
With BLUETOOTH, the infrared interface and the integrated Wireless LAN (depending on the
model), you can also connect to other devices in your office and on the go without bothersome
cables. For example, thanks to BLUETOOTH you can take me into the Internet without cables with
your BLUETOOTH-capable cell phone. Naturally, I also have the Pocket Internet Explorer ready for
you. With it you can visit both websites and WAP sites.
Incidentally, if you install a GSM/GPRS CompactFlash card in me I am completely autonomous
when it comes to Internet and data connections: send your emails, carry out research in the net or
synchronise your data (e.g. via XTND Connect), regardless of where you are at the moment.
For long hours far from a power connection and cradle, I can warmly recommend the Main Battery
XL (also available as an accessory). In conjunction with the Main Battery XL, I can offer you up to
24 hours of battery runtime, depending on your preferred applications.

May I introduce myself?

But whether with or without accessories, you'll notice I'm fully willing and able to help you in a wide
variety of situations. Thanks to the FSC SpeedMenu and the corresponding keys you can also operate
me with one hand. Test my diversity! - This manual will help you do that!
The following documentation contains additional information on your Pocket PC and the Pocket PC
2003 operating system:
•in the manuals "Safety and Ergonomics" and “Warranty"
•in the "Getting Started" manual

Important notes
This chapter contains information on the proper, safe use of your Pocket PC. Please be sure to
observe the following safety precautions to prevent damage to your device, data loss or damage to
your health. The information on saving energy, charging the battery and cleaning your Pocket PC
are very important for proper operation of the Pocket LOOX 610. To protect the environment, we
urgently ask that you observe the disposal and recycling information.
Keep this operating manual together with the device. If you pass on the device to a third party,
please also pass on the operating manual.
Safety notes
!Pay attention to the information provided in the "Safety and Ergonomics" and "Warranty"
manuals and in the following security notes.
Observe the sections in the manual marked with the symbol on the left.
•The Pocket LOOX 610 is a technical device that contains small parts. Therefore, please keep
your Pocket PC out of reach of children under 36 months of age.
•When setting up and before operating the device, observe the information on the environmental
conditions in the "Operating pocket LOOX 610“ and "Technical data“ chapters, as well as the
safety precautions in the "Safety and Ergonomics“ and "Warranty"manuals.
•You may only operate the Pocket LOOX 610 with the power adapter AD 3110 if the nominal
voltage of the power adapter AD 3110 (100 V to 240 V) matches the local mains voltage.
•When transporting and during trips, observe the safety precautions in the "Pocket LOOX 610 in
mobile use“chapter.

A26391-K139-Z120-2-7619 5
Energy saving
Switch off your Pocket PC with the Suspend key when you don't need it. In the System settings you
can specify after how many minutes the Pocket PC switches off when it is not used (see the
"Configuring Pocket LOOX 610" chapter).
While you are working, and if the ambient light conditions permit, you can reduce the display
brightness or even switch off the display lighting completely. The Pocket LOOX 610 is equipped with
a transflective display that reflects incident light and enables you to work even under unfavourable
lighting conditions.
You can also specify the switching off and on again of the display lighting in the system settings of
your Pocket PC (see the "Configuring Pocket LOOX 610" chapter).
If you use the energy saving functions, you can work with the Pocket PC longer before having to
recharge the battery. We particularly recommend that you reduce the display brightness to
effectively save energy and therefore appreciably increase the time you can work with the battery.
Disposal and recycling
The following applies for the Pocket PC itself and the Main Battery XL: batteries and accumulators
do not belong in the household rubbish bin.
Our devices are mostly produced of materials that can be turned over for proper recycling. The
device may be taken back after use to be recycled, provided that it is returned in a condition that is
the result of normal use. Any components not reclaimed will be disposed of in an environmentally
acceptable manner. To give back a device please take advantage of your country's disposal and
recycling possibilities.
Further information about country-specific disposal and recycling possibilities can be found on the
following website www.fujitsu-siemens.com/recycling.
If you have any questions on disposal, please contact your local office or our Help Desk.

Battery storage
Store the Pocket PC in a fully charged state. The Pocket PC should be stored in a dry area at a
temperature between -20°C and +60°C. The lower the temperature at which the batteries are stored,
the lower is the rate of self-discharge. Avoid leaving your Pocket PC lying in direct sunlight in a car.
If you want to store your Pocket PC unused for a longer time (longer than two months), charge the
battery 100% beforehand. Please note that batteries discharge themselves over time. Therefore,
recharge the battery of your Pocket PC at regular intervals during the storage period.
Cleaning Pocket LOOX 610
ÊSwitch the Pocket PC off.
ÊPull the power plug of the network adapter out of the mains outlet.
!Do not clean any interior parts yourself; leave this job to a service technician.
Do not use any cleaning agents that contain abrasives or may corrode plastic.
Please ensure that no liquid enters the Pocket PC.
Wipe the casing with a dry cloth.
If it is very dirty, you can clean the casing and the display with a damp cloth.
