Prolong battery life

Many features in your device increase the demand on

battery power and reduce the battery life time. To save

battery power, observe the following:
• Features that use Bluetooth technology, or allowing

such features to run in the background while using

other features, increase the demand on battery power.

Switch off Bluetooth when you do not need it.

• Features that use wireless LAN (WLAN), or allowing such

features to run in the background while using other

features, increase the demand on battery power. The

WLAN on your Nokia device switches off when you are

not trying to connect, not connected to another access

point, or not scanning for available networks. To

further reduce battery consumption, you can specify

that your device not scan, or scans less often, for

available networks in the background.

when you scroll to new areas on the map, which

increases the demand on battery power. You can

prevent the automatic download of new maps.

much in your area, your device must scan for the

available network repeatedly. This increases the

demand on battery power.
If the network mode is set to dual mode in the network

settings, the device searches for the 3G network. You

can set the device to use only the GSM network. To use

only the GSM network, select
