Storing The Archer 3 And Battery Pack - Juniper Archer 3 Owner's Manual

Storage, Maintenance, and Recycling
Follow the instructions in this chapter to properly maintain
and recycle the Archer 3.

Storing the Archer 3 and Battery Pack

When the handheld is not being charged and is suspended,
it draws a small amount of power. This power draw is used to
maintain the memory (RAM) of the handheld in the same state
it was when it was suspended. We recommend charging the
handheld each night or weekend when it is in suspend mode.
If the Archer 3 is not charged while in suspend mode and the
battery reaches a low charge, it automatically powers off to
prevent further drain on the battery.
Note: Data and programs are secure as long as they have
been saved, even if the battery pack becomes discharged.
The handheld does not depend on the battery to store the
data for extended periods.
