Sleep mode
Sleep mode saves battery power by putting HTC U Ultra into a low power state while the display is
off. It also stops accidental button presses when HTC U Ultra is in your bag.
Switching to Sleep mode
To turn off the display and switch to Sleep mode, briefly press the POWER button. You can also
double-tap the lock screen.
HTC U Ultra also automatically goes into Sleep mode when it’s left idle for a while. You can change
the time before HTC U Ultra sleeps by setting the screen timeout. For details, see Setting when to
turn off the screen on page 168.
Waking up from Sleep mode
§ Press the POWER button.

™
to wake up and unlock your phone directly to an app or screen. See
Motion Launch on page 43.
