Battery tips
Your phone is like a small computer, giving you a lot of
information and apps, at 3G speed, with a touch
display! Depending on what you use, that can take a
lot of power.
To start getting the most out of your battery,
touch Menu
> Settings > Battery manager >
Battery profile. Choose Performance mode for
constant data transfer and battery use,
Battery saver
mode when your battery is low or Smart mode if you
want to set
Battery profile options that limit your
data and wireless connections during off-peak hours.
To save even more battery life between charges, you
could reduce:
• The number of videos you record or watch, the
amount of music you listen to or the number of
pictures you take.
• Widgets that stream information to your home
screen, such as news or weather (“Use & change
your home screen” on page 7).
• GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth™ use: Touch and hold an
empty spot on your home screen, then touch
Motorola widgets > Bluetooth toggle, Wi-Fi
toggle or GPS toggle to view and control.
• Network speed: from the home screen
touch Menu
>
Settings > Wireless &
networks > Mobile networks > Select network >
2G only.
• Network searching: to prevent your phone from
looking for networks when you are out of coverage,
press and hold Power
>
Flight mode.
• Display brightness: from the home screen,
touch Menu
> Settings > Sound & display >
Brightness > (dimmer setting).
