Battery care

How do I prolong my battery life?

There are simple steps you can take to lengthen the time needed between charges:

• Activate Battery saver mode - this means your phone will turn off some services, including automatic emails, to preserve its battery. You'll need to get your emails manually
  • On the home screen select the arrow
  • Select Settings
  • Select Battery saver
  • Select Always turn on Battery Saver when battery is low.
• As with most devices, you should only use the charger that it came with. Using a different one, for example an old Nokia charger, may not be as effective

What else can I do?

1. Switch off any connections you're not using
2. Decrease your brightness settings
   • On the home screen select the arrow
   • Select Settings
   • Select Brightness
   • Move the dimmer to decrease your phone's brightness
3. Switch off the vibrate function on your phone and use the ringtone only.
4. Switch off your phone whenever you don't plan to answer any calls
• For example, while you are sleeping or in a location that doesn't get reception
5. To prevent the battery from draining when using Nokia Drive, keep your device connected to your car charger.

My battery has completely drained and now it won't turn on
