Using peripheral devices
If the caution message that warns of low battery-remaining is displayed while
you use peripheral devices with your CLIÉ handheld, stop using them
immediately and charge your CLIÉ handheld. If you continue operating, data
in your CLIÉ handheld’s memory may be lost.
When battery charge gets low
• When battery charge gets low, a caution message appears on the screen, and
operations for “Memory Stick” media or backlight adjustment become
unavailable.
If this occurs, perform a HotSync
®
operation to make a backup of all the data
of your CLIÉ handheld to your computer. Then charge your CLIÉ handheld
using the cradle to prevent accidental data loss.
• If your CLIÉ handheld does not turn on when you slide down the POWER/
HOLD switch, charge your CLIÉ handheld immediately.
• The remaining battery indicator does not always reflect the actual battery
power remaining. To prevent the battery running out accidentally, charge it
frequently even when it is not fully discharged.
• You do not have to replace batteries. When the Battery Remain icon reads
zero, connect your CLIÉ handheld to the USB cable and start charging
immediately. Never disassemble your CLIÉ handheld to take out the battery.
Do not let the remaining battery indicator read 0
If you leave your CLIÉ handheld in an uncharged state (the remaining battery
indicator reads 0
), all of the stored data will be erased. Sony
recommends that you charge your CLIÉ handheld frequently.
Others
Your CLIÉ handheld may get warm if turned on for a long period. This is not
malfunction.
