Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Palm Z22

1. Take off the cover on the back of your PDA buy pulling it down. When you take off this cover, you'll reveal some screws on the rear of the device.

2. Use the Allen or Torx wrench included with the device when you bought it to loosen the screws.

3. Look to make sure that there are no tabs connected to the circuit board of Z22. You'll need to go to a technician to disconnect the tabs. If they're present, don't proceed to the next step.

4. Move the cover off of the Palm PDA to reveal the battery. You'll see the battery in a case. Flip the battery towards the top of the case to get a better look at it.

5. Look for the cord connecting the battery to your PDA. Pull it up from the base plug of the power cord. Disconnect the battery.

6. Remove the old battery from the battery case and place the new battery in the case. Place the new battery cord back into the position you removed it from. Place the battery in the same position as the old battery was before you moved it.

7. Put the rear cover back on the Z22. Make sure you let it charge for a least four hours before use.
