The autonomy of your phone seems lower than indicated on the user guide

The autonomy is linked to your settings (e.g., ringer volume, backlight duration) and the features you use. To increase the autonomy, and whenever possible, you must deactivate features you do not use.

Your phone doesn’t work well in your car

A car contains many metallic parts that absorb electromagnetic waves which can affect the phone’s performance. A car kit is available to provide you with an external antenna and enables you to make and receive phone calls without handling the handset.

Check with the local authorities whether or not you are allowed to use the phone while driving.
