How often should I recharge my handheld?
We recommend that you recharge your handheld for at least half an hour every day. Ideally,
connect your handheld to a power source every night and recharge it while you sleep. Also, you
can conserve battery life by doing any of the following:
• Reduce the brightness of the display.
• Reduce the Auto-off after setting.
• Use Keyguard Preferences to prevent your handheld from being turned on accidentally.
• Minimize use of the expansion card slot.
• Turn the Bluetooth® feature off when you’re not using it.
