250 Managing Your Device

13.10 Battery Saving Tips

How long your battery power lasts depends on the battery type and how

you use your device. Try the following to help conserve battery life:

• When the device is not in use, press POWER to switch off the display.

• On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap All

Settings. On the System tab, tap Power > Advanced tab of the

Power settings screen. Here, you can specify the time before your

device automatically turns off the display and backlight to conserve

battery power. For optimum conservation, specify 3 minutes or less.

• On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap All

Settings. On the System tab, tap Power > Backlight tab to adjust the

backlight brightness settings.

• Use the AC adapter to plug your device into an external power

outlet whenever possible, especially when using a modem or other

peripherals.

• Turn Bluetooth off when you are not using it. Make your device visible

to other devices only when you are trying to establish a Bluetooth

partnership. For more information about Bluetooth, see Chapter 9.

• Lower the volume.

• Close battery-intensive programs, such as the Camera, when you

are done using them. Make sure the programs are ended and are

not continuously running in the background. Refer to “Using Task

Manager” in this chapter for information on closing programs.
