Frequently asked questions

This chapter includes answers to some common questions about the
handheld.

Alarm

Why is my alarm not sounding when I've set the time?
• Ensure that you have enabled the alarm by setting the Alarm
On/Off field to 'On.' When the alarm is set, a bell icon appears
on the Home screen. See page 149 for information on setting
this field.

Battery

What should I do when I see the message "Battery too low for
handheld usage"?
• Press any key to close this dialog box. Recharge the handheld's
battery. See page 21 for information. The handheld can be kept
at a full charge by simply "topping up" the battery every day
for 10-15 minutes. From an empty battery, a full charge can be
achieved in approximately 3 hours. It is not necessary to
completely drain the battery before recharging.
What should I do if my handheld does not turn on?
• Make sure that the internal battery has been fully charged.
(There should be five bars beside the battery indicator in the
Home screen if the battery is fully charged.)
