Note
: Your Pocket PC Phone automatically backs up data in
case of power cutoff. For details, see page 56.
Saving battery power
Getting started
You can conserve battery power by adjusting the
Power
settings. During standby, the Pocket PC Phone goes to
the Sleep mode after a specified period of time of
inactivity, so very little power is being consumed. This
helps to preserve programmes and data stored in the
RAM.
A lower setting increases the usable battery time. A
higher setting decreases the usable battery time and
allocates it for standby usage.
To adjust the Power setting:
