Check the indicator light to make sure your Treo 650 is charging. If the battery is
fully drained, it may take a few moments for the indicator light to turn on while
charging. When your Treo 650 is connected to a power source, the indicator light
glows solid (versus flashing), and the color of the light indicates the following:

Using a Sprint Charger Adapter
If the connector on your Sprint-approved 1 Amp AC charger or vehicle charger
doesn’t fit into the connector on the bottom of your Treo device, use the included
Sprint charger adapter.
Important:
It is vital that you use only Sprint-approved AC adapter chargers, car
chargers, and replacement batteries. Use of unauthorized accessories
could damage your device and invalidate your warranty.

1. Plug the charger to a power source.
2. Connect the Sprint charger adapter to
the bottom of the Treo 650.
3. Connect the charger cable to the
Sprint charger adapter.
4. Charge your Treo 650 as described

Battery life
Battery life depends on individual use. Consumption factors include signal
strength, speakerphone use, and whether calls are data or voice calls.
When your device’s phone is on, the Treo battery provides up to 4.5 hours of talk
time on the Sprint PCS 1900 MHz band. Talk time is slightly lower when roaming
on the cellular 800 MHz band.
If the battery drains to the point where your Treo 650 doesn’t turn on, the Treo
device stores your information safely until you recharge the battery. To avoid
draining the battery, we recommend that you charge and synchronize your
Treo 650 every day, especially if you use the wireless features of your device often.
Warning:
Use only with 1 Amp AC adapters distributd by Sprint for Treo 650. Using
any unapproved AC adapter may destroy the AC adapter and cause fire.
Note:
Using your device’s phone has an effect on the battery life. You can extend the
battery life by turning off your device’s phone while using the organizer
features. In any case, regular charging is recommended for optimal
performance.
