note that a 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
the tempered glass surface and void the warranty.

Warranty" on page 207.
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.

Extending Your Battery Life

Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and
GPS functionality all act to drain your battery. The
following is a list of helpful tips that can help
conserve your battery power:
Reduce your backlight on time.
•
Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.
•
Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.
•
Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most applications
•
using this function will periodically query the GPS
satellites for your current location; each query drains your
battery.
