Important! Your 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. (For more information, refer to "Phone Health/ Safety and Warranty Guide" at the front of this manual.) Low Battery Indicator When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the device sounds a warning tone at regular intervals. In this condition, your phone conserves its remaining battery power, not by turning off the backlight, but by entering the dimming mode. For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your device's display. Solid color ( ) indicates a full charge. When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically turns off. You can also choose to display a percentage value. Having a percentage value onscreen can provide a better idea of the remaining charge on the battery. Ⅲ From the Home screen, tap Apps ➔ Settings ➔ Battery ➔ Show battery percentage. 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 the time your backlight stays on. • Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. • Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use. • Deactivate Location when not needed. (For more information, refer to "Location" on page 89.) Most applications using this function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains your battery. 11
