Managing Your
Device
This chapter tells you how to effectively manage power, settings, data and
programs of your device.

Managing Power

A fully charged battery should provide power for up to 6 hours of use. The
operating time of a fully charged battery depends on how you are using the
device. Some functions, such as using multimedia or operating a microSD
card, may consume the battery power considerably.

Low Battery Signals and Actions

CAUTION: When you recharge the battery upon a warning of low power,
you should charge for at least 30 minutes. If you unplug the AC charger
soon, you may not have sufficient battery power for your operation.
You can monitor the battery power by tapping  Settings  System 
Power. The remaining power is displayed on a status bar in the Power
control panel.
When the battery is low, your device will pop up a warning message and a
beep will sound. You should save your data and recharge the battery
immediately upon a warning of low power; otherwise your device will turn
off automatically. You need to connect the device to external AC power for
charging before you can use it again.
