Time, date, week start, and numbers formats

in all applications on your handheld.

To select the time, date, week start, and numbers format:

2. Tap the Date pick list and select a format.

3. Tap the Week starts pick list, and select whether you want the first day of the week to be

Sunday or Monday.

This setting controls the Day, Week, Month, Year, and List views in Date Book Plus
and all other aspects of your handheld that display a calendar.

4. Tap the Numbers pick list, and select formats for the decimal point and thousands separator.

General Preferences

The General Preferences screen enables you to set the auto shutoff interval, sounds for your
handheld, the alarm LED, and the beam receive feature.

Auto-off delay

Your handheld has an automatic shutoff feature that turns off the power after a period of
inactivity. This feature conserves battery power if you forget to turn off your handheld. If you find
that your handheld shuts itself off before you finish viewing information on the screen, increase
the auto-off setting.

To set the Auto-off delay:

1. Tap the Auto-off After pick list.

2. Tap the setting you want to use for the automatic shutoff feature: 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2

minutes, or 3 minutes.
