Improving battery performance The following tips can help you improve battery performance: • Charge your device often. This will not affect the lifetime of the battery. • Downloading data from the Internet is power consuming. When you're not using the Internet, you can save power by disabling all data connections over mobile networks. This setting does not prevent your device from transmitting data over other wireless networks. • Turn off GPS, Bluetooth™ and Wi-Fi® when you don't need these features. You can turn them on and off more easily by adding the Quick settings widget to your Home screen. You do not need to turn off 3G. • Use the Extended Standby Mode setting to minimize battery consumption when the screen is inactive. • Set your synchronization applications (used to synchronize your email, calendar and contacts) to synchronize manually. You can also synchronize automatically, but increase the synchronization intervals. • Check the battery usage menu in your device to see which applications use the most power. Your battery consumes more power when you use video and music streaming applications, such as YouTube™. Some applications downloaded from Google Play™ may also consume more power. • Close and exit applications that you are not using. • Lower the screen display brightness level. 14 This is an Internet version of this publication. © Print only for private use.
