4 Managing Your A701
This chapter tells you how to effectively manage power, memory, settings, data
and programs of your A701.
4.1 Managing Power
You must maintain a continuous power supply to your A701 to retain your data,
including any information, programs or settings that you added to your A701.
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
A701. 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, A701 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 correct 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. A701 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 power is low, your A701 will pop up a warning message. You
should save your data and charge the battery immediately upon a warning of
low power; otherwise your A701 will turn off automatically. You need to
connect A701 to external AC power for charging before you can use it again.
