Caring for the Organizer
The Organizer contains sophisticated circuitry and a glass display panel which can be damaged if not handled with care. A few precautions should be taken regarding the Organizerís care to ensure it gives you many years of reliable and trouble-free use.
* Keep the Organizer away from
extreme heat. Do not leave it on the dashboard of a car or near any source of heat. Do not leave it in any place that is extremely damp or dusty.
* Do not drop the Organizer or
subject it to severe impact or extreme force. Bending the Organizer unduly can damage it.
* Do not use extreme force when
pressing the keys. Do not use any sharp, pointed object to press them.
* Sharp or hard object can scratch
and damage the Organizer. Make sure it is adequately protected when carried with other objects. Do not carry it loose in a bag or briefcase: find a pocket or secure compartment within your bag.
* Clean the Organizer only with a
soft, dry cloth. Do not use solvents.
* Do not carry the Organizer around
in your back pocket, as it may break when you sit down. The display is made of glass and is very delicate.
* Since this Organizer is not waterproof, do not use it or
store it where fluids, for example water, can splash onto it. Raindrops, water spray, juice, coffee, steam, perspiration, etc. will also cause malfunction.
* Replace the batteries as soon as they become weak (see
p.62). Failing to replace weak batteries may result in leakage or lost data.

You can quickly update your computerized mailing lists, for example, or even transfer your notes, letters and memos onto a PC for further processing.

T o start an application, select the application in the Main Menus or press the Application keys on the left of the screen (Main / Tel / Schedule / Memo / My Programs).
When working in one application, you can switch to another application simply by pressing that application key (Main / Tel / Schedule / Memo / My Programs only). Data being processed in the first application will be kept, even if the entry is not complete.

General Operation
Checking the Memory
The Organizer has a certain memory capacity in which operations are carried out and data that has been entered, such as phone numbers and memos, are stored. When the amount of data already stored approaches the Organizerís maximum memory capacity, you may not be able to store an entry or the data being processed may be lost when you change applications. To avoid these problems, you should check the remaining memory space regularly and free up space when necessary by deleting out-of-date entries. The Check Memory function allows you to easily check the amount of free memory available in the Organizer, and thus avoid the inconvenience of running out of memory and losing data.
