Using the Stylus
Your iPAQ Pocket PC comes with a stylus that you should use to
tap or write on your screen.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to your iPAQ Pocket PC screen, never
Ä
use any device other than the stylus that comes with the Pocket PC
or an approved replacement to tap or write on the screen. If you
lose or break your stylus, you can order extras at
www.hp.com/go/ipaqaccessories.
You can perform three basic actions using the stylus:
Tap —Lightly touch the screen to select or open an item. Lift the
stylus after you tap an item. Tapping is equivalent to clicking an
item with the mouse on your computer.
Drag—Place the point of the stylus on the screen and drag an
item across the screen without lifting the stylus until you have
completed the selection. Dragging is equivalent to dragging with
the left mouse button pressed on your computer.
Tap and hold—Hold the stylus pointer on an item for a short
time until a menu displays. Tapping and holding is equivalent to
right-clicking your computer mouse button. When you tap and
hold, a circle of red dots appears around the stylus to indicate that
the menu will soon pop up.
*HWWLQJWR.QRZ<RXUL3$43RFNHW3&
Setting the Date and Time
When you turn on your iPAQ Pocket PC for the first time, you are
requested to select your time zone. After setting the time zone,
you still need to set the time and date on your unit. All three
settings are located in the Clock Settings screen and can be set
at the same time.
Note: By default, the time on the iPAQ Pocket PC is synchronized
with your computer each time the two devices connect using
ActiveSync.

Resetting the Unit
Sometimes there is a need to reset your Pocket PC. Resetting the
unit is known as performing a “soft” or “hard” reset. A soft reset
(also known as a normal reset) stops all running applications, but
does not erase any programs or saved data.
A hard reset (also known as a full reset) is used when you want to
clear all user-installed settings, programs, and data from the
Read-Only Memory (ROM). By performing a hard reset, you
return the device to its original shipping state.
8VHU·V*XLGH ²
Performing a Soft Reset
Since a soft reset stops all running applications, be sure to save
any unsaved data within a running application before performing
a soft reset.
To perform a soft reset:
1. Locate the recessed Reset button on the bottom of your iPAQ
Pocket PC.
2. Use the stylus to lightly press the Reset button.
The Pocket PC restarts and displays the Toda y screen.
*HWWLQJWR.QRZ<RXUL3$43RFNHW3&
Performing a Hard Reset
Perform a hard reset only when it is necessary because this
process does clear all user-installed settings, programs, and data
from ROM.
CAUTION: If you perform a hard reset, your Pocket PC returns to its
default settings and loses all data and programs not saved in iPAQ File
Ä
Store.
8VHU·V*XLGH ²
*HWWLQJWR.QRZ<RXUL3$43RFNHW3&
To perform a hard reset:
1. Press and hold down the Calendar and iTask buttons.
2. While holding down these buttons, use the stylus to
lightly press the Reset button on the bottom of the iPAQ
Pocket PC for about two seconds.
3. When the Pocket PC screen begins to fade, release the
Calendar and iTask buttons first, and then remove the stylus
from the Reset button.
CAUTION: If you push and hold the Reset button for more than two
Ä
seconds, the battery disconnects. To restart the unit, either plug the unit
into the AC Adapter or press the Reset button again.
4. The Pocket PC resets and powers on.

regularly. Your Pocket PC uses some power to maintain files in
RAM and the clock. While working at your desk, keep the Pocket
PC and AC Adapter connected through the USB Synchronization
Common cradle. When you travel, it is recommended that you
carry the AC Adapter, Charger Adapter plug, or an optional spare
battery with you.
CAUTION: Use only an HP approved battery for your iPAQ Pocket
Ä
PC. Inserting a battery that does not comply with HP requirements might
cause the Pocket PC to malfunction.
The iPAQ Pocket PC also has a small internal backup battery that
allows you to change the main battery without losing RAM data
(user-installed programs and data) as long as it is replaced within
15 minutes. The internal battery can only be removed by
qualified HP Technical Support.
