PERFORMANCE SETTINGS

Optimising Battery Life

You can prolong the life of your battery by deactivating functions you do not require.

You can also configure the way in which system resources and apps consume battery

power, by pressing the Menu button

· If you are not using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or GPS, you can adjust your Settings

accordingly, as explained earlier.

· It is recommended that you close any maps and navigation apps if you are

not using them, as they require GPS access and consume more power.

· Set your display brightness to AUTO. You can access these settings directly

by pulling down the Notifications bar with two fingers.

· Select a short screen timeout interval, by going to Settings > Display > Sleep.

· Deactivate the auto-sync feature for certain apps, by going to Settings >

Accounts. Note that you will have to synchronise your e-mail accounts

manually, and you will not receive any notification when updates becoming

available.

· Switch to Flight mode by pressing and holding down the On/Off button until

a pop-up window appears containing the corresponding option. Alternatively,

access this option by pulling the Notifications bar down with two fingers.

To optimise your battery configuration, go to Settings > Battery. The list at the bottom

of the screen shows battery use for the various apps and services on your tablet.

Press the graph to access more detailed information. The screen showing detailed

consumption information for certain apps also contains recommendations on how

to configure your settings to maximise battery energy.
