4. Confirm your Treo is charging by chec ing the LED. If the battery is fully
drained, it may ta e a few moments for the LED to turn on while charging.
Red LED: battery is charging.
Green LED: battery is fully charged.
LED off: battery is not charging. Chec the cable connection and the outlet to
which it is connected.
After you set up your Treo, the onscreen battery gauge displays power status:
Full battery icon : battery is charged.
Partial battery icon : battery has some power but is not fully charged.
Empty battery icon : battery needs charging immediately.
Red lightning bolt : battery is charging.
Green lightning bolt : battery is fully charged.
Battery life
Battery life depends on individual use. Consumption factors include signal
strength, bac light and spea erphone use, and whether calls are data or voice
calls.
When Wireless Mode is on, the Treo battery provides approximately 4 hours of
tal time or approximately 10 days of standby time on the PCS, 1900 MHz band.
Tal time is slightly lower when roaming on the cellular 800Mhz band. When
Wireless Mode is off, the battery provides about 4 wee s of normal use.
If the battery drains to the point where your Treo doesn’t turn on, the Treo stores
your data safely for about 3 days. We recommend that you charge and synchronize
your Treo every day, especially if you use your phone often.
5
Setting Up
Maximizing battery life
You can increase the life of your Treo battery by following a few easy guidelines.
Remember that battery life depends on how you use your Treo.
• Charge your Treo whenever you’re at your des . The Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
battery has a much longer useful life when it is topped off frequently, versus
charging it after it is fully drained.
• The wireless features of your Treo (phone, email, messaging, and Web)
consume more power than its organizer features. However, if you spend a lot
of time using the camera, games, media players, eBoo s, or other Palm OS
applications, eep an eye on the battery level and charge when necessary.
• If you don’t plan to use the wireless features on your Treo for a while, you may
want to turn off Wireless Mode (see page 27). You can forward calls to a
different number or let all calls be pic ed up by voicemail (see page 56).
• As with any mobile phone, if you are in an area with no wireless coverage,
your Treo searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to
an area of better coverage, you may wish to temporarily turn off Wireless
Mode.
• Use the eyboard bac light (see page 34) only when you need it. Turn down
the screen brightness (see page 128).
• Decrease the Auto-off setting in General Preferences (see page 136). This turns
off your screen automatically after a shorter period of inactivity.

transfer that information to your Treo. At the same time, changes you ma e on the

We strongly recommend that you install the Palm Des top synchronization
software soon after you start using your Treo and that you synchronize your Treo
