4 Managing Your A700
This chapter tells you how to effectively manage power, memory, settings, data
and programs of your A700.
4.1 Managing Power
You must maintain a continuous power supply to your A700 to retain your data,
including any information, programs or settings that you added to your A700.
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
A700. 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, A700 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 corrent 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. A700 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 is low, your A700 will pop up a warning message. You should
save your data and charge the battery immediately upon a warning of low
power; otherwise your A700 will turn off automatically. You need to connect
A700 to external AC power for charging before you can use it again.
