Power Saving

not using it.

Lite, use your stylus to adjust the Backlight Brightness

Level slider, located under the Light bulb icon, halfway

across to the middle position.

 Turn off the backlight. On the Today screen, tap the Light

bulb icon > Battery Power tab; then set the backlight to turn

off soon after you stop using the device.

 Leave the device set to turn off after not being used for a short

period of time. On the Today screen, tap the Battery icon >

Advanced tab. On battery power, set the device to power off

in the shortest acceptable time.

 Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth power when not in use. Tap

Start > iPAQ Wireless > ALL OFF button.

then uncheck Receive all incoming beams.

 Assign a program button to turn off the screen display while

listening to music. Tap Start > Programs > Windows Media
