Using the battery efficiently
Battery lifespan may decrease if you keep many apps and functions running
simultaneously and continuously. Cancel background operations to increase
battery life. To minimize battery consumption, follow these tips:
Turn off the Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi network function when not using them.
Set the screen timeout to as short a time as possible.
Minimize the screen brightness.
Set a screen lock when the device is not used.
Check the battery usage details and close any downloaded apps that are
draining the battery.
The Basics
Optimizing Battery Life
You can extend your battery’s life between charges by turning off features
that run in the background. You can also monitor how apps and system
resources consume battery power.
Tips to extend the life of your battery
Reduce the screen brightness and set a shorter screen timeout.
Turn off radio communications (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth®, GPS, etc.) that
you're not actively using. (Note that the GPS receiver is only turned on
when you’re using an app that makes use of it.)
Turn off automatic syncing for Gmail, Calendar, Contacts, and other apps
if you don’t need it.
NOTE Allowing other devices to use your device's hotspot connection will drain your

Anti-Theft Guide
You can set up your device to prevent other people from using it if it’s been
reset to factory settings without your permission. For example, if your
device is lost, stolen, or wiped, only someone with your Google Account or
screen lock information can use the device.
All you need to make sure your device is protected is:
Set a screen lock: If your device is lost or stolen but you have a screen
lock set, the device can’t be erased using the Settings menu unless your
screen is unlocked.
Add your Google Account on your device: If your device is wiped but
you have your Google Account on it, the device can’t finish the setup
process until your Google Account information is entered again.
After your device is protected, you’ll need to either unlock your screen or
enter your Google Account and password if you need to do a factory reset.
This ensures that you or someone you trust is doing the reset.
NOTE Do not forget your Google Account and password you had added to your device
prior to performing a factory reset. If you can't provide the account information
during the setup process, you won't be able to use the device at all after performing
the factory reset.
Touch Screen
Your touch screen provides an excellent way to interact with and use your
Android™ phone. With the touch of your finger, you can download and use
available apps, make menu selections, and access data saved to your
phone.
Touch or tapA single finger touch selects items. For example, tap an icon
(e.g., an app, widget, or folder), tap words (e.g., menu selection or to
answer an on-screen question), or touch letters and numbers to type.
NOTE Don't press too hard on the screen. It's sensitive enough to detect a light, firm tap.
Touch and holdTouch an item on the screen and don't lift your finger until
an action occurs. For example, to open a context menu for a contact,
touch and hold the contact entry until the menu pops up.
21
The Basics
22
DragTouch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your
finger, move your finger on the screen until you reach the target position.
For example, you can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.
Swipe, slide, or flickMove your finger quickly across the surface of the
screen, without pausing when you first touch it (so you don’t drag an item
instead). For example, you can browse through the Home screens by
swiping left and right, slide the screen up or down to scroll through a list,
or remove an app from the Recent apps screen by flicking its graphic off
the screen.
Double-tapTap the screen twice quickly to zoom, highlight text, or turn
the screen on/off. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a web page
to zoom that section to fit the width of the screen and control the zoom in
Maps and in other apps. Double-tap a word to highlight it. Double-tap can
also activate the KnockON feature to turn the screen on or off.
NOTE Certain Accessibility features (such as Touch zoom) use a triple-tap gesture to zoom
or activate functions. A triple-tap will also create a new event in the Calendar app.
Multi-touchUse your index finger and thumb in a pinch motion (to zoom
out) or spread motion (to zoom in) when using Chrome, a map, photos,
the rear camera lens, and in lists (e.g., Contacts, Groups, and the
Messaging list). Spread apart to make screen information larger (easier to
see and read), or pinch together to view more area and information. The
pinch gesture also affects the Home screen. Spread apart on the Home
screen to hide all of your Home screen items, then pinch in to redisplay
them.
Rotate the screenFrom many apps and menus, the orientation of the
screen adjusts to the phone’s physical orientation by rotating the screen.
You can deactivate this function in the Display settings menu.
