setting up your treo 600

Step 1 : Charging the battery

Before using your Treo , you need to fully charge the battery. Your phone may not turn on at all when you first remove it from the box. We recommend that you charge your phone for three hours or until the LED is solid green.

1. Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet.

2. Connect the charger cable to the bottom of the Treo , with the word UP facing the same direction as your Treo screen.

A. LED

3. To confirm that your Treo is charging, check the LED.

• When the LED is solid red, your Treo is charging.

• When the LED turns solid green, your Treo is fully charged.

• If the LED does not light up when you connect your Treo to the charger,

doublecheck the cable connection and the electrical outlet to which it is connected.

After you turn on your Treo, the onscreen battery gauge displays the power status:

• Full battery icon : Battery is charged

• Partial battery icon : Battery has some power and is not charging

• Empty battery icon : Battery needs charging immediately

• Red lightning bolt : Battery is charging

• Green lightning bolt with full battery icon : Battery is fully charged

Note: Battery consumption varies based on your personal usage. Consumption factors include signal strength, backlight and speakerphone usage, and whether calls are data or voice calls.

Step 2 : Turning the screen on and off.

1. Press the Screen button to turn on the screen.

2. Briefly press the Screen button to turn off the screen.

Step 3 : Follow the set up screen

If a setup screen appears, follow the instructions to select a language and calibrate the screen. If a setup screen doesn’t appear, you’re ready to continue; press Center to unlock the keyboard feature.

connection to your computer

Synchronization lets you enter information on your computer (using Palm® Desktop or Microsoft® Outlook® for Windows) and then efficiently transfer that information to your Treo. At the same time, changes you make on your Treo are transferred to Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook. Even if you manage all your contacts on your Treo, synchronization is a great way to back up your data.

Before you can synchronize, you need to install Palm Desktop software on your computer. Even if you already own a Palm Powered™ device

and have installed a previous version, you must uninstall it and install the software that comes with your Treo.

connecting treo to your computer

1. Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet. If necessary connect an adapter.

2. Connect the charger to the short end of the HotSync cable. Be sure to match the sides of the connectors labeled UP.

3. Plug the USB HotSync cable into an available USB port on your computer.

4. Connect the long end of the HotSync cable to the bottom of your Treo with the button facing up. For best performance, plug your USB synchronization cable directly into a USB port on your computer. If you use a USB hub, make sure it is a powered hub.

installing palm desktop software on your computer

Your computer needs all of its resources available to install the desktop synchronization software. Follow these guidelines for a successful installation:

1. Exit any applications that are currently running on your computer, including those running in the background.

2. Insert the CD that came with your Treo into the CD-ROM drive on your computer. If you are installing on a Macintosh, double-click the CD icon on the desktop, and then double-click the Installer icon.

3. Follow the onscreen instructions of the installation program. Click Install Now to install Palm Desktop software. Please note these important points about the installation process:

• If a language selection screen appears, choose the same language you use on your Treo .

• During the installation process, you will be prompted to synchronize for the first time.

i. Mobile Number

ii. Voice mail password (4-digit number)
