Extending the battery life
Active applications, screen brightness levels, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi usage and GPS
functionality can drain your battery. You can follow the helpful tips below to
conserve your battery power:
• Reduce the screen backlight time.
• Lower the screen brightness.
• Turn auto-sync, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth off when not in use.
• Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications using this
function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location;
each query drains your battery.
