Auto-off delay

Your phone has an automatic shutoff feature that turns off the power
after a period of inactivity. This feature conserves battery power if you
forget to turn off your phone. If you find that your phone shuts itself off
before you finish viewing information on the screen, increase the auto-
off setting.

To set the Auto-off delay:

1.

Tap the

Auto-off

pick list.

2.

Tap the setting you want to use for the automatic shutoff feature:

30

seconds

,

1 minute

,

2 minutes

, or

3 minutes

.

Note:

The Auto-off setting turns off only the handheld mode on your

phone. It does not turn off your phone’s wireless mode. So, you can still
receive calls, e-mail and text messages after the automatic shutoff period.
