Battery
n TOP OFF YOUR BATTERY: Your battery will last
longer if you top it off frequently instead of charging
when it’s fully drained. You can charge your Treo 800w
from a wall outlet (charger included in box), from a
computer (with the included USB sync cable) or in
your car with a Vehicle Power Adapter (not included,
available from Sprint and online from the Palm Store
at store.palm.com).
n KEEP YOUR BATTERY COOL: Heat reduces battery
performance, so keep your battery out of the sun or a
hot car. If your Treo overheats when charging, it may
stop charging.
n CARRY A SPARE: If you plan to spend a lot of time
out and about, like on business trips, it’s a good idea to
carry an extra battery. Palm’s Spare Battery Charger is
available at an additional cost and includes a spare Treo
800w battery. You can find it online at the Palm Store
at store.palm.com.
