If HRT700 runs out of Power
Low Battery Power
When batteries are running low, you will see a low battery icon in the navigation bar.
Replace or recharge the batteries as soon as possible. Running on low battery power will
affect the device’s peripheral performance. Hence, the device will automatically shut down
when the battery power is critically low. Under normal conditions, a fully charged battery can
be used for long hours. Here are a few tips to help you get the most from them.
WARNING
If the battery is low, you run the risk of losing the data in your HRT700
Use External Power Whenever Possible
Use the AC adapter to plug your HRT700 into external power whenever possible, especially
when:
Establishing a remote connection (some modems use a lot of power).
Using the backlight feature of your HRT700 display.
Connecting to a desktop computer.
Shorten the Auto-Suspend Time
While on battery power mode, your HRT700 will automatically suspend after a predefined
idle period. Maximize the battery’s life by shortening the idle time. Tap and then Settings.
On the Control Panel tab, tap Power, and then adjust the Schemes setting.
Turn Off the Sounds when Necessary
The HRT700 produces sounds in response to a number of events, such as warnings,
appointments, and screen taps or when you press hardware-button. To optimize battery’s life,
turn off any unnecessary sound. Tap and then Settings. On the Control Panel tab, tap
Volume & Sounds and clear checked boxes on the Events, Application, keyClicks and
Notification tabs.
Turn Off the Unused Peripherals
Turning OFF all the unused peripherals in the device will save and optimize the battery‘s life.
To turn OFF all the unused peripherals, tap and then Settings. On the Control
Panel tab, tap Power Control and switch OFF all the unused peripherals.
