can conserve battery life by doing any of the following:
•
Adjust the screen brightness
•
Reduce the Auto-off setting
•
Use Keylock to prevent your handheld from turning on by accident
• Stop

playback when not in use
• Respond to or cancel alerts promptly

Turn off Bluetooth® wireless technology and Wi-Fi® functionality
when not in use
