3 Setting Up 2 Charging the Battery You must charge your Treo fully before using it. It may not turn on at all when you ﬁrst remove it from the box.•Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet. •Connect the charger cable to the bottom of the Treo with the word UP facing the same way as your Treo screen.•Wait for the LED to turn solid green. This may take up to 3 hours. Important Note: It is vital that you use only Sprint-approved AC adapter chargers. Use of unauthorized accessories could damage your phone and invalidate your warranty.

4 Setting Up •Conﬁrm your Treo is charging by checking the LED. If the battery is fully drained, it may take a few moments for the LED to turn on while charging.  Red LED : battery is charging.  Green LED : battery is fully charged.  LED off: battery is not charging. Check the cable connection and the outlet to which it is connected.•After you set up your Treo, the onscreen battery gauge displays power status:Full battery icon : battery is charged.Partial battery icon : battery has some power but is not fully charged.Empty battery icon : battery needs charging immediately.Red lightning bolt : battery is charging.Green lightning bolt : battery is fully charged.Battery lifeBattery life depends on individual use. Consumption factors include signal strength, backlight and speakerphone use, and whether calls are data or voice calls.When Wireless Mode is on, the Treo battery provides approximately 4 hours of talk time or approximately 10 days of standby time on the PCS, 1900 MHz band. Talk time is slightly lower when roaming on the cellular 800Mhz band. When Wireless Mode is off, the battery provides about 4 weeks of normal use.If the battery drains to the point where your Treo doesn’t turn on, the Treo stores your data safely for about 3 days. We recommend that you charge and synchronize your Treo every day, especially if you use your phone often.Start Here.book Page 4 Thursday, July 17, 2003 4:43 PM

5Setting UpMaximizing battery lifeYou can increase the life of your Treo battery by following a few easy guidelines. Remember that battery life depends on how you use your Treo.•Charge your Treo whenever you’re at your desk. The Li-Ion battery has a much longer useful life when it is topped off frequently, versus charging it after it is fully drained.•The wireless features of your Treo (phone, email, messaging, and web) consume more power than its organizer features. However, if you spend a lot of time using the camera, games, media players, eBooks, or other Palm OS applications, keep an eye on the battery level and charge when necessary.•If you don’t plan to use the wireless features on your Treo for a while, you may want to turn off Wireless Mode. See page 27. You can forward calls to a different number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail. See page 56.•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, you may wish to temporarily turn off Wireless Mode. •Use the keyboard backlight (see page 34) only when you need it. Turn down the screen brightness (see page 127).•Decrease the Auto-off setting in General Preferences. See page 135. This turns off your screen automatically after a shorter period of inactivity.Start Here.book Page 5 Thursday, July 17, 2003 4:43 PM

Follow the instructions in this README ﬁle for a smooth transition.To transfer all compatible applications and data from your previous device to your new Treo: 1. Perform a HotSync operation with your old device and your old desktop software to back up your data one last time. 2. Install the Palm Desktop synchronization software from the CD that came with your Treo (see page 21). During the installation process, perform a HotSync operation with your new Treo. When prompted to choose a user name for your new Treo, be sure to select the existing user name for your old device.3. Some third-party applications may be quarantined by the HotSync Manager because they are not compatible with the Palm OS 5.2 on your Treo. Do not manually install any quarantined ﬁles. 4. If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset (see page 153) to remove its associated user name. Each device you synchronize with your computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize with your old device, be sure to assign it a new user name.After upgrading, there are a few things you need to know about your new Treo:Address Book is now called Contacts. To launch Contacts, press Phone , then use the 5-way navigation control to choose Contacts.Date Book+ is now called Calendar. Press Calendar to launch.Applications Launcher.

159HelpHotSync Operation Finishes But Data Does Not Appear Where It Should1. Make sure you’re synchronizing with the intended desktop Personal Information Manager (PIM). The CD that came with your Treo includes software to synchronize with Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook for Windows. The software that lets you synchronize with Microsoft Outlook is called PocketMirror, from Chapura, Inc. When you install the Treo software from the CD, PocketMirror will be activated if you choose the option to synchronize with Outlook. If you use a different PIM, you will need to install third-party software to synchronize it with your Treo. Consult the company that makes the PIM for more information.2. If there are multiple Palm Powered devices synchronizing with your computer, make sure you are synchronizing with the correct user name. If data is not appearing in Palm Desktop, make sure the correct user name is selected in the toolbar of Palm Desktop.3.

If it comes up blank, press Menu , then from the Page menu, choose Refresh.If you still cannot access the page, it may be because the page contains only elements that are not supported by Blazer Web Browser. Unsupported elements include Flash, Shockwave, Java applets, VBScript, WML script, and media plug-ins.Some Web sites automatically redirect you to their true home page (for example, http://www.handspring.com/support may resolve to http://support.handspring.com/esupport/html/start.jsp). If the Blazer Web Browser fails to observe the redirect, you can use a desktop browser to see the true home page’s address, and enter that address in Blazer.An Image or Map Displays Too Small on the Treo ScreenThe Blazer Web Browser has two modes: Optimized and Wide Page. Optimized Mode re-sizes all images and page elements to make them ﬁt on a single vertical column on the Treo screen. Switch to Wide Page mode to see the image in its original, full-size form.

161HelpPicture MailThe Picture Mail application takes pictures at Small picture size (160x120 pixels) and Large picture size (640x480 pixels, or 0.3 megapixel). Here are some tips for taking good pictures with the built-in camera:Clean the camera’s lens with a soft, lint-free cloth.Take pictures in brighter lighting conditions. Low-light images may be grainy, due to the sensitivity of the camera.Hold the camera as still as possible. You may want to support your picture-taking arm up against your body or a stationary object (such as a wall).Keep the subject of the pictures still. Exposure time is longer with lower light levels, so you may see a blur.For best results, verify that you have the brightest light source coming from behind you, lighting the subject’s face. Don’t take indoor pictures with the subject in front of a window or light.Make sure the subject is at least 16 inches away from the camera to ensure good focus.Remember, when you synchronize, your Picture Mail images are stored in the Treo Pictures folder on your hard drive (see page 68).Start Here.book Page 161 Thursday, July 17, 2003 4:43 PM

$162HelpThird-Party ApplicationsOn rare occasions, third-party applications can cause conﬂicts that interfere with the smooth operation of your Treo. Third-party applications that modify the wireless features of your Treo may require extra troubleshooting.If you recently installed an application and your Treo seems to be stuck, try the following: 1. Perform a soft reset (see page 152).2. If the problem persists, perform a system reset (see page 152) 3. Delete the most recently installed application from your Treo (see page 112).4. If the problem persists, perform another system reset.5. Delete other third-party applications one at a time until you eliminate the problem.6. If none of the steps above are possible, you may wish to perform a hard reset (see page 153). Then, locate your Backup folder on your computer (Windows: C:\Program Files\Handspring\user name; Macintosh: Mac HD\Applications\Palm\Users\user name). If you ﬁnd a .prc or .pdb ﬁle for any applications you just removed, delete the ﬁle(s) from the Backup folder. Then, perform a HotSync operation to restore your data and applications.Remember, not all third-party applications were written with the Treo keyboard and 5-way navigation in mind. You may encounter strange behavior or errors in these applications if you use the keyboard and navigation control.Getting More HelpContact the author or vendor of any third-party software if you require further assistance. Sprint does not provide technical support for applications that are not built into your Treo.Start Here.book Page 162 Thursday, July 17, 2003 4:43 PM$
