50  Managing Your Device

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  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.
