Features that use Bluetooth technology, or allowing such
features to run in the background while using other
features, increase the demand on battery power.
Deactivate Bluetooth technology when you do not need
it.
Features that use wireless LAN (WLAN), or allowing such
features to run in the background while using other
features, increase the demand on battery power. WLAN
on your Nokia device deactivates when you are not trying
to connect, not connected to an access point, or not
scanning for available networks. To further reduce
battery consumption, you can specify that your device
does not scan, or scans less often, for available networks
in the background.
If you have set Packet data connection to When
available in connection settings, and there is no packet
data coverage (GPRS), the device periodically tries to
establish a packet data connection. To prolong the
operating time of your device, select Packet data
connection > When needed.
The Maps application downloads new map information
when you scroll to new areas on the map, which
increases the demand on battery power. You can prevent
the automatic download of new maps.
If the signal strength of the cellular network varies much
in your area, your device must scan for the available
network repeatedly. This increases the demand on

settings, the device searches for the 3G network. You can
set the device to use only the GSM network. To use only
the GSM network, select Menu > Settings and

battery power. In the display settings, you can change
the length of the time-out period after which the

display brightness, in the display settings, select Light
sensor.
