2.Under On battery power, make sure the Turn off device if not used for check box is selected.

3.Select the battery timeout period, then tap OK.

You will still be able to receive messages and calls while your device is in Sleep mode. Pressing the POWER button again or new incoming calls/ messages will wake up your device.
