object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered
glass surface and void the warranty see “Health and Safety
Information”
on page 153.

touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your
finger or a non-metallic stylus. Using excessive force or a
metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery level is low and only a few minutes of talk time
remain, a warning tone sounds and the “Low battery” message
repeats at regular intervals on the display. In this condition, your
phone conserves its remaining battery power, by dimming the
backlight.

When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically
turns off.

Power Control

Active applications, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Synchronization, or
the LCD Brightness functionality all act to drain your battery.

The Power Control shortcut bar was designed to quickly activate
(turn on), or deactivate (turn off) those functions or applications
that use the most battery power.

The following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your
battery power:

Reduce your backlight time.

Turn off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Synchronization when not in use.

Deactivate the GPS when it is not needed. Most applications that use

this function periodically query the GPS satellites for the current
location; each query drains your battery.

Turn off Automatic application synchronization.
