If the battery level becomes too low, the battery icon will be
replaced by LOW, indicating that it is time to recharge the
handheld. In this state, all radio functions, such as sending
and receiving email and PIM operation, will be disabled until
the battery is recharged.
If you place the handheld in the charging cradle when it is
turned off, the red LED light will turn on. This light indicates
that the handheld is charging and it will turn off once the
handheld is fully charged.
