Inserting the SIM
card and battery
Your SIM card contains account
information such as your phone number
and voicemail access number. To use your
smartphone’s phone, email, or web
features, you need to insert a SIM card. If a
SIM card is not included in your
smartphone box, your network operator
will provide you with one.
To take advantage of the high-speed data
connection available on your smartphone,
you need to have a 3G SIM card. A 3G SIM
card has “3G” on it.
1Holding your smartphone screen side
down, use two or more fingers to press
firmly against the battery door while

Charging the battery
Although the battery may come with a
sufficient charge to complete the setup
process, we recommend that after setup
you charge your smartphone for three
hours (or until the indicator light is solid
green) to give it a full charge. See
Maximising battery lifefor tips on making
your battery’s power last longer.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN Make sure the
battery is inserted in your smartphone
before you charge. If you connect your
smartphone to a power source without the
battery inserted, nothing happens.
1Prepare the AC charger by inserting the
adapter that fits the wall outlet you’re
going to use.
2Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet.
3Connect the charger cable to the
bottom of your smartphone.
4Check the indicator light to confirm that
your smartphone is charging.
•Solid red indicates that your
smartphone is charging.
•Solid green indicates that your
smartphone is fully charged.
TIP You can buy an extra battery as a spare for
long airplane trips or periods of heavy data
use. To ensure proper functioning and avoid
nullifying the warranty, be sure to use
batteries from Palm only. Visit palm.com.

Maximising battery life
Battery life depends on how you use your
smartphone. You can maximise the life of
your battery by following a few easy
guidelines:
•Charge your smartphone whenever
you’re at your desk, or charge
it overnight each day. The battery in
your smartphone has a much longer
useful life if you charge it frequently
instead of waiting until it’s fully drained.
•If you spend a lot of time using the
camera, games, media players
(including listening to music with
wireless headphones using the built-in
Bluetooth®wireless technology), or
other applications, keep an eye on the
battery icon and charge when
necessary.
•The wireless features (phone, email,
messaging, instant messaging, and
web) on your smartphone generally
consume more power than the
organiser features. If you don’t plan to
use the wireless features on your
smartphone for a while, turn off your
wireless services (see Turning wireless
services on/off). You can forward calls
