Changing the main battery Changing the main battery
Follow this procedure when you replace the main battery with a
spare battery (accessory F1287A).
Do NOT replace your main battery when the backup battery is
low or data loss may occur.
When taking out the main battery, keep in mind that when
the P/PC is without power, data retention is guaranteed for
only 1 minute, and only if the backup battery level is "good"
(check the Status tab of the Power panel; see the Using the
Status tab section in chapter 3).
To change the main battery
1. Turn off the P/PC.
2. Release the battery door by pushing the stylus into the
small hole above the door. Then, slide the door down and
off. See the figure in the
Installing the battery section in chapter 2.
3. Slide the old battery out of the battery slot.
4. Slide the new battery into the battery slot. If the battery
does not slide in easily, check the battery orientation
and try again. If you are putting the battery in correctly,
you do not need to force it.
5. Replace the battery door, and slide it up until it snaps
shut.
6. Turn on the P/PC.
The rechargeable backup battery is a permanent part of the HP
Jornada, so you do not need to install or replace it.
Before using battery power, charge the battery by connecting
the AC adapter.
You can use the P/PC while charging. Charging the battery
takes approximately 3 to 4 hours.
