TIP Charging the battery The battery comes with a sufficient charge to complete the setup process and activate your phone. After activation, we recommend charging your Treo XXX for three hours (or until the indicator light is CHARGING THE BATTERY 11 CHAPTER SETTING UP solid green) to give it a full charge. See Maximizing battery life for tips on maximizing the life of your Treo battery. To avoid draining the battery, charge your Treo XXX every day, especially if you use your phone often. TIP DID YOU KNOW? If your battery ever becomes fully drained, your info is still stored safely on your Treo XXX until you connect your Treo XXX to a power source and charge the battery. 1 Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet. 2 Connect the charger cable to the bottom of your Treo XXX. Make sure the arrow on the connector is facing up, toward the screen. You can also trickle-charge your Treo XXX without the AC charger by connecting it to your computer with the sync cable. Trickle-charging takes longer, however. Be sure to plug your computer into a power source, or your Treo XXX could drain the computer’s battery. For the quickest charge time, use the AC charger. DID YOU KNOW? When trickle-charging your Treo XXX with the sync cable, the indicator light may not turn on. To make sure the battery is being charged, check the onscreen battery indicator. TIP 3 To confirm that your Treo XXX is being charged, check the indicator light on your Treo XXX. • Solid red indicates that your Treo XXX is being charged. • Solid green indicates that your Treo XXX is fully charged. Indicator light 12 CHARGING THE BATTERY A partial battery without a lightning bolt indicates that the battery is not connected to an electrical outlet and it has some power. If the battery is fully drained, it may take a few moments for the indicator light to turn on when you begin charging. TIP If the indicator light does not turn on when you connect your Treo XXX to the AC charger, double-check the cable connection and the electrical outlet to which it is connected. TIP When your Treo is on (see Turning your Treo™ XXX smart device on and off), the onscreen battery icon displays the charging status: A red lightning bolt indicates that the battery is connected to an electrical outlet and is being charged.

To purchase batteries that are compatible with your Treo XXX, go to go.palm.com/ mytreoxxx-att/go.palm.com/mytreoxxx. TIP Maximizing battery life Battery life depends on how you use your Treo XXX. You can maximize the life of your battery by following a few easy guidelines: IMPORTANT Use the battery that came with your Treo XXX. Do not use a battery from another Treo in your Treo XXX. Similarly, do not use the Treo XXX battery in another Treo. Using a battery that is designed for another Treo can damage your Treo XXX. For info on replacement batteries, see Replacing the battery. 14 MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE • Charge your Treo XXX whenever you can. Charge it overnight. The battery has a much longer useful life when it is topped off frequently than when it is charged after it is fully drained. • The wireless features (phone, email, messaging, Push to Talk, and web) and media features (camera, media players, eBooks, and games) of your Treo XXX consume more power than its organizer features. Speakerphone usage also consumes more power than using the earpiece. If you use the wireless, speakerphone, and media features often, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary. • • If you don’t plan to use the wireless features on your Treo for a while, turn off your phone (see Turning your Treo™ XXX smart device on and off) and let all calls be picked up by voicemail. As with any mobile phone, if you are in an area with no wireless coverage, your Treo searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to an area of better coverage, temporarily turn off your phone. While your phone is off, you can continue to use the nonwireless features of your Treo. • Turn down the screen brightness (see Adjusting the brightness). • Decrease the settings in Power Preferences and turn off Beam Receive (see Optimizing power settings). • Turn off the Bluetooth® feature if you’re not using it. See Connecting to a Bluetooth® hands-free device.

MAKING YOUR FIRST CALL 17 CHAPTER SETTING UP Setting up your computer for synchronization Before you can synchronize the info on your computer and the info on your Treo, you need to install the desktop synchronization software and connect the sync cable to your computer. You can use either Palm® Desktop software (included) or Microsoft Outlook for Windows (sold separately) as your desktop software. Not familiar with synchronization? See Synchronizing information—the basics. System requirements Your computer should meet the following minimum system profiles for Windows or Mac computers. Windows XP SP2, Windows Media Center Edition 2005, and Vista: 18 • 32MB of available memory (RAM) • 170MB of free hard disk space • CD drive • Available USB port Mac OS X version 10.3 to 10.5: • 128MB of total memory (RAM) • 190MB of free hard disk space • CD drive • Available USB port Upgrading from another Palm® OS by ACCESS device NOTE If you are setting up your first Palm OS device, skip ahead to Installing the desktop synchronization software. When you install the desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD, some third-party applications may be quarantined because they are not compatible with the Palm OS software version 5.4.9 on your Treo XXX. Quarantined files are not installed on your Treo XXX, nor are they deleted. These files are placed in a new folder on your computer: C:\Program Files\Palm\\PalmOS5 Incompatible Apps. (Can’t find a Palm folder in Program Files? Then look for a folder labeled palmOne or SETTING UP YOUR COMPUTER FOR SYNCHRONIZATION Handspring instead. For more info, see I can’t find my user folder.) • In Applications View, open the menus. • Select Info on the App menu. IMPORTANT Synchronize your Treo with only the version of Palm Desktop software included with your device. Older versions may not work correctly. • At the bottom of the screen, select Size. • Look at the numbers on the Free Space line and subtract the number on the left from the number on the right to calculate the space used. For example, on the device shown here, 22.4 – 17.5 = 4.9. This means that 4.9MB of space is occupied on this device. We do not recommend using third-party utilities that back up your old device’s information onto an expansion card and then transfer the info to your Treo XXX. Such methods transfer all applications to your Treo XXX, including those that are not designed to work with Palm OS version 5.4.9. CHAPTER SETTING UP TIP You can transfer all compatible applications and information from your previous Palm OS device—whether it’s a handheld or a Treo—to your new Treo XXX, so long as the space taken up by all the info you want to transfer is 64MB or less. This includes your calendar events, contacts, memos, and tasks, as well as your application settings and any compatible third-party applications and files. 1 Calculate how much space your apps and info occupy on your previous Palm OS device. 2 If the space occupied on your previous device is 64MB or less, go to step 3. If the space occupied is greater than 64MB, do any of the following to reduce the storage space you’re using before you go to the next step: SETTING UP YOUR COMPUTER FOR SYNCHRONIZATION 19 CHAPTER SETTING UP • Delete any third-party applications that you no longer use. • Move large files, such as eBooks and images, to an expansion card. • Move third-party applications to an expansion card. • Purge old info in applications such as Calendar (Date Book), Tasks (To Do), and email. Refer to the documentation that came with your previous device for instructions on these items. 3 Synchronize your previous device with your previous desktop software to back up your information one last time. Indicate that you want to sync only the info in your PIM apps (Calendar, Contacts, Memos, and Tasks). This is strongly recommended to ensure an optimal upgrade experience. Or indicate that you want to sync all info and apps (excluding apps known to be incompatible). • Select a device name for your Treo XXX; be sure to select the same name that you used for your old device. (To locate this name, select the HotSync application on your old Palm device. The device name appears in the upper-right corner of the screen.) 4 Install the desktop synchronization software from your new Palm Software Installation CD (see Installing the desktop synchronization software). 6 MAC ONLY If you have pictures on your previous device, copy them from your previous device to an expansion card or beam them to your Treo XXX. 5 During the installation process, sync your Treo XXX with your new desktop software as instructed. When prompted, do the following: 7 If you plan to continue using your previous device, perform a hard reset on your previous device to remove its associated device name. (See the documentation that came with your previous device for instructions on performing a hard reset.) Each device you synchronize with your computer • 20 • Connect your Treo XXX to your computer (see Connecting your Treo XXX to your computer). SETTING UP YOUR COMPUTER FOR SYNCHRONIZATION must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize your previous device with your computer, be sure to assign it a new name. If any third-party applications are quarantined during the installation, do not manually install them. Contact the third-party developer for software updates and info about compatibility with your Treo XXX. If you have trouble upgrading or finding quarantined files, see Upgrading. TIP If you want to sync info with applications other than Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook, you need to purchase additional third-party sync software. This sync software is sometimes called a conduit. TIP CHAPTER SETTING UP 1 Close any applications that are currently running on your computer, including those that are minimized. Your computer needs to have all its resources available to install the software. 2 Insert the Palm Software Installation CD into the CD drive on your computer. Installing the desktop synchronization software IMPORTANT Even if you already own a Palm OS device and have installed a previous version of the desktop software, you must install the software from the Palm Software Installation CD that came with your Treo XXX. BEFORE YOU BEGIN If you are installing on a computer at work, make sure your computer is configured to let you install new software. Contact your company’s IT department for help. SETTING UP YOUR COMPUTER FOR SYNCHRONIZATION 21 CHAPTER SETTING UP 3 If you are installing on a Mac, double-click the CD icon on the desktop, and then double-click the Palm Software.pkg icon. 4 When the installation wizard opens, follow the onscreen instructions. Note these important points about the installation. • When the language selection screen appears, select the same language you selected on your Treo XXX. • WINDOWS ONLY You can choose which desktop software you want to use for synchronization: Palm Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook. NOTE Whether you select to synchronize with Microsoft Outlook or Palm Desktop software, Palm Desktop software is still installed on your computer. If you use Outlook as your desktop email application, select Outlook as your desktop synchronization software. Remember that when you enter information on your computer, you must enter it in the software you selected in this step. 22 • The installation process prompts you to connect your Treo XXX to your computer. Go to the next section. Connecting your Treo XXX to your computer After you install the desktop software (see Installing the desktop synchronization software), you’re ready to connect your Treo XXX to your computer. BEFORE YOU BEGIN To set up your computer, you need the sync cable that came with your Treo XXX. 1 Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet. 2 Plug the USB sync cable into an available USB port or into a powered USB hub connected to your computer. For best performance, plug your sync cable directly into a USB port on your computer. If your computer has USB ports on both the front and back, we recommend using the back port; the front port is often a low-power port. If you use a USB hub, make sure the hub has its own power supply. TIP SETTING UP YOUR COMPUTER FOR SYNCHRONIZATION 3 With the sync button facing up, connect the sync cable to the bottom of your Treo XXX. Do not press the sync button until you are instructed to do so. 4 (Optional) Connect the charger cable to the bottom of your Treo XXX.

TIP Connecting to a Bluetooth® hands-free device Partnership Two devices—for example, your Treo XXX and a hands-free device—that can connect because each device finds the same passkey on the other device. Once you form a partnership with a device, you don’t need to enter a passkey to connect with that device again. Partnership is also known as paired relationship, pairing, trusted device, and trusted pair. Performance and range may be reduced by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors. If you hear a headset buzz or experience poor microphone performance, your headset may be incompatible with your Treo XXX. TIP BEFORE YOU BEGIN Prepare your hands-free device to accept a Bluetooth connection. See the documentation that came with your hands-free device for instructions. KEY TERM Once you set up a partnership with a Bluetooth hands-free device, you can communicate with that device whenever it is turned on and within range.

NOTE Use the same device name for all your Bluetooth connections. If you change the device name, you need to recreate any partnerships you have already created. 4 Select Setup Devices. 5 Select Hands-free Setup. CHAPTER YOUR PHONE IMPORTANT Some hands-free devices have a predefined passkey. If your device has a predefined passkey, you can find it in the documentation for that device. Other devices provide a screen where you enter a passkey that you make up. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your Treo XXX and your hands-free device. We recommend that, where possible, you make up a passkey of 16 alphanumeric characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the security of your Treo XXX. The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered. 7 After you finish setting up the device, select Done to return to Trusted Devices View.

When a call comes in, your Treo XXX rings and the hands-free device beeps. Even if you answer the call on your Treo, the call goes to the hands-free device. If you prefer to route calls to the earpiece on your Treo, you can change the settings on your Treo XXX to do this; see Customizing advanced settings for your hands-free device for details. 74 USING A HANDS-FREE DEVICE If you’re using a Bluetooth hands-free device and you want to return to the earpiece or a wired headset during a call, select Cancel Bluetooth in Active Call View.
