Setting the General preferences The General Preferences screen enables you to set the auto shut-off interval and sounds for your CLIE handheld. Setting the automatic shut-off time Your CLIE handheld has an automatic shut-off feature that turns off the power after a period of inactivity. This feature helps conserve battery power in case you forget to turn off your CLIE handheld. If you find that your CLIE handheld shuts itself off too early or too late, you can increase or decrease the time setting for the automatic shut-off feature. By default, your CLIE handheld will turn off after two minutes of inactivity and will be on as long as it is connected to a cradle (not supplied). 1 Tap General from the drop-down list on the Preferences screen. The General Preferences screen is displayed. 2 Tap the arrow V next to Auto-off after and then select the desired time setting for the automatic shut-off feature. You can select 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, or 3 minutes. Chapter5 Customizing your Sony CLIE Handheld (Preferences) Continued on next page 179
