Page 23: Inserting The Battery
Inserting the Battery WARNING: Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and chargers with your device. The failure to use a Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved battery and charger may increase the risk that your device will overheat, catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.
Page 24 Follow the onscreen instructions to set up your device. Tip: Buy an extra battery as a spare for long trips or heavy data use. Visit www.palm.com to purchase batteries that are approved by Sprint and that are compatible with your device. Section 1A: Device Setup...
Page 25: Charging The Battery
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 device for three and a half hours to give it a full charge. See “Maximizing Battery Life” on page 16 for tips on maximizing the life of your device’s battery.
Page 26 If the battery is fully drained, it may take a few moments for the indicator light to turn on while the battery is charging. The onscreen battery icon displays the power status: Full battery icon : Battery is not connected to a wall outlet and is fully charged.
Page 27 Using a Sprint Charger Adapter If the connector on your Sprint-approved 1 Amp AC charger or vehicle charger doesn’t fit into the connector on the bottom of your device, use the included Sprint charger adapter. Warning: Use only with 1 Amp AC chargers distributed by Sprint for your device. Using any unapproved AC charger may destroy the AC charger and cause a fire.
Page 28 Battery Life Battery life depends on individual use. Consumption factors include signal strength, speakerphone use, and use of wireless features. If the battery drains to the point where your device doesn’t turn on, the device stores your information safely until you recharge the battery. To avoid draining the battery, we recommend that you charge and synchronize your device every day, especially if you use the wireless features of your phone often.
Page 29 You can forward calls to a different number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail (see “Call Forwarding” on page 73). As with any mobile phone, if you are in an area with no wireless coverage, your device searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to an area of better coverage, you may want to temporarily turn off your phone.

If you’re unable to perform the steps above or the problem persists, locate your Backup folder on your computer and rename the folder (for example, BackupOld). Note that “Palm” in the following locations might be “Handspring” or “palmOne,” based on the device you’re upgrading from: Windows: C:\Program Files\Palm\device name.
Page 360 If the problem is resolved, begin reinstalling your third-party applications one at a time by double-clicking a single file in the original Backup folder that you renamed, and sync after each application you install. If the problem recurs, delete the last application you installed and report the problem to its developer.
Page 361: Errors
Errors Your Treo device is designed to minimize interruptions when a system error occurs. If your device encounters a system error, it automatically resets itself and resumes functioning as normal. If possible, it even turns the phone back on if it was on before the error occurred.

Page 373: Important Safety Information
Important Safety Information In This Section General Precautions Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device Caring for the Battery Radiofrequency (RF) Energy Static Electricity, ESD, and Your Device Owner’s Record User’s Guide Proprietary Notice This guide contains important operational and safety information that will help you safely use your Treo™...
Page 374: General Precautions
General Precautions There are several simple guidelines to operating your device properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service. Hold the device with the antenna over your shoulder. Try not to hold, bend, or twist the device’s antenna. Don’t use the device if the antenna is damaged. Speak directly into the microphone.
Page 375: Maintaining Safe Use Of And Access To Your Device
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device Do Not Rely on Your Device’s Phone for Emergency Calls Wireless phones such as the one on your Treo device operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential communication (for example, medical emergencies).
Page 376 Using Your Device’s Phone Near Other Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment. RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles.
Page 377 Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.
Page 378: Using Your Phone With A Hearing Aid Device
The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating www.palm.com/treoHAC Section 8A: Important Safety Information smart...
Page 379 of your aids. Most new hearing aids have at least an M2 immunity level. Add the “M” ratings of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable usability: Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use. Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
Page 380: Caring For The Battery
Caring for the Battery Protecting Your Battery The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance. Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards.
Page 381 It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing. Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules: Less than one month: -4°...
Page 382: Radiofrequency (Rf) Energy
Radiofrequency (RF) Energy Understanding How Your Phone Operates Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.
Page 383 Body-Worn Operation To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use the Sprint-supplied or -approved carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 7/16 inch (1.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.

Page 385: Static Electricity, Esd, And Your Device
Even a small amount of ESD can harm circuitry, so when working with electronic devices, take measures to help protect your electronic devices, including your Palm® device, from ESD harm. While Palm has built protections against ESD into its products, ESD unfortunately exists and, unless neutralized, could build up to levels that could harm your equipment.
Page 386 Make sure to discharge any built-up static electricity from yourself and your electronic devices before touching an electronic device or connecting one device to another. The recommendation from Palm is that you take this precaution before connecting your device to your computer, placing the device in a cradle, or connecting it to any other device.
