Low Battery Indicator
When the battery level is low and only a few minutes of talk time
remain (~15% charge), a warning tone sounds and the
“Battery low” message repeats at regular intervals on the display. In
this condition, your device conserves its remaining battery power, by
dimming the backlight.
When the battery level becomes too low, the device automatically
turns off.
The on-screen battery charge is represented (by default) as a
colored battery icon. You can also choose to display a percentage
value. Having a percentage value on-screen can provide a better
idea of the remaining charge on the battery.

Extending Your Battery Life
Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and GPS
functionality all act to drain your battery. The following is a list of
helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power:
•
Reduce your backlight on time.
•
Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.
•
Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.
•
Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most applications using this
function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location;
each query drains your battery.
