1.2 Battery
Your Pocket PC Phone 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 :
n Talk-time : 3 ~ 4 hrs,
n PDA : 15 hrs (approx.),
n Standby : 168 hrs (approx.),
Started
Getting
n 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 Pocket PC does not have a hard drive, all data and any new programs you install are stored in RAM. If the battery completely 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. An additional battery, the backup battery, is designed to keep your data safe when you remove the main battery. It will keep this data safe for 20 minutes.
Warning : To reduce risk of re or burns, do
not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, heat above 60 (140), or dispose of in re or water. Replace only with manufacturer specied batteries. Recycle or dispose of used batteries to the local regulations.
