Using the Phone 3-28 4 Managing Your A701 This chapter tells you how to effectively manage power, memory, settings, data and programs of your A701. 4.1 Managing Power You must maintain a continuous power supply to your A701 to retain your data, including any information, programs or settings that you added to your A701. A fully charged battery should provide power for up to 8 hours of use. The operating time of a fully charged battery depends on how you are using the A701. Some functions, such as using multimedia or phone features and operating a SD/MMC card, may consume the battery power considerably. Low Battery Signals and Actions CAUTION: When the battery runs out of power completely, A701 turns off automatically. Charge the battery or replace the old battery immediately. Replacing the battery needs to be finished in 5 minutes to make sure of the correct system time. When you charge the battery upon a warning of low power, you should charge for at least 30 minutes before unplugging the AC adapter. A701 may not be able to turn on during the first few minutes of the charging until the battery power reaches the protection point of the system. You can monitor the battery power by tapping Settings System Power, or tapping the icon on the Today screen. The remaining power is displayed on a status bar. When the battery power is low, your A701 will pop up a warning message. You should save your data and charge the battery immediately upon a warning of low power; otherwise your A701 will turn off automatically. You need to connect A701 to external AC power for charging before you can use it again. Managing Your A701 4-1 Power Management Supplied with your A701 is a tool called “eUtility.” This tool helps you effectively manage power to prolong the battery’s operating time. Settings System eUtility. The tool consists of five tabs: System, Performance, Power, USB and Camera. They are described as below. Tap System This page displays the program information. It does not contain any adjustable items. Performance Select a mode from the following four options. Auto A701 will automatically adjust the CPU speed according to the need of the current operation. Low Performance The CPU always runs at a lower speed, thus extending the battery life. High Performance The CPU always runs at normal speed, thus providing standard battery life. Super Performance The CPU always runs at a high speed, thus shortening the battery life. Power You can change the settings of the following items based on your needs. Keypad Backlight on SD slot powered off during sleep mode You can also select the events for waking up your A701. Application Buttons SD/MMC Card insertion/removal USB plug-in Managing Your A701 4-2 USB You can establish a synchronization partnership between A701 and the desktop computer (ActiveSync mode), or simply use A701 as a card reader (Card Reader mode). The default setting is ActiveSync mode. Note that you do not need to disable the USB connection in ActiveSync on the desktop computer when using the card reader mode. Camera When you use the camera indoors, you can select 50Hz or 60Hz to match the flicker frequency of the fluorescent lamp. Power-Saving Tips Follow these suggestions to maximize the battery’s operating time, particularly when you are relying solely on the battery power for extended time periods. Suspend or turn off the device frequently. By default, the screen backlight will automatically turn off and A701 will also suspend when it has been idle for a period of time. You can shorten the length of the idle time using Settings System Power Advanced to set up. Press the End button for 3 seconds until the Quick List appears and then tap Power off to turn off your A701 when it is not in use, even for a short time. Turn off functions not needed or adjust settings. Lower the volume. Do not enable sounds or light flashing except for the most necessary notifications.
