Notes on battery
When the SIMpad is AC-powered, there is no load on the built-in battery.
If it is not at full capacity, it is charged automatically.
If the battery is fully discharged, charging takes about 2.5 hours. You can
see that the device is charging when the orange LED on the right side of
the screen is lit.
As soon as you use SIMpad without a connection to AC power it draws
its power from the battery. When the battery is fully charged you can use
SIMpad for up to 7 hours without connecting it to AC power
(depending on communication with other devices and on the screen
brightness set). You should therefore minimize the screen brightness as
far as possible (see Page 72 for adjusting brightness).
When the charge capacity of the battery drops below 20% an appropriate
warning is displayed on the screen. When the charge capacity drops
below 10% you should recharge the device.
When SIMpad is switched off and not connected to AC power, your data
is retained for around 10 days with a fully charged battery.
Notes on the stylus
The screen is touch-sensitive. The stylus supplied in the device is
designed to be used to touch the screen.

Consider backing up your important data in the IPSM folder
(see Page 15), storing it on your memory card (PC card) or
transferring it to a PC (see Page 85) if you are not going to use
SIMpad for an extended period of time and it is not connected to
AC power. Otherwise your data will be lost.
Only use the stylus supplied for touching the screen.
