Correct Incorrect Extending Your Battery Life Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and other functionality all act to drain your battery. The following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power: ⅷ Reduce your Backlight on time. See "Changing the Backlight Time Length" on page 40. ⅷ Reduce the screen Brightness. See "Adjusting the Screen's Brightness" on page 41. ⅷ Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. See "Turning Bluetooth On and Off" on page 104. ⅷ Disconnect from Web services that are not in use (Facebook®, MySpace®, Twitter®, etc.) See "3C. Entertainment" on page 150.
