Chapter 7 | Optimizing your HP Jornada | 135

Under normal circumstances, the main battery will provide

up to 7 hours of continuous use without recharging. Actual

battery life will vary depending on screen brightness, what

applications you use, and operating conditions. When the

main battery runs very low, your HP Jornada will shut

down, and you will be unable to restart it until you replace

the main battery, recharge the battery, or connect to AC

power.

When you replace the main battery, your new battery must

be charged before your HP Jornada will turn on. For infor-

mation on charging the main battery, refer to the Connect-

ing the AC adapter section in chapter 2.

Ensure that the backup battery is in good condition before you remove the main battery.

If the backup battery is low or you are not sure, connect to AC power before you remove

the main battery.

To replace the main battery

1. Turn off your HP Jornada and disconnect the sync

cable if it is attached.

2. Slide the audio lock to the left if it is unlocked.(No

green dot should be seen. The green dot indicates

that the audio buttons are unlocked.)

3. Slide the battery release button on the bottom of the

HP Jornada.

4. Pull the original battery pack away from the device.

5. Insert the new battery pack and push firmly until it

clicks into place.

Backup battery

The coin-sized, lithium ion backup battery does not provide

enough power to operate your HP Jornada. It is intended

only to protect your data until the main battery is re-

charged.
