Using Sleep mode
Your device will automatically time-out after a few minutes of
non-operation, placing it into Sleep mode. The screen dims and
then darkens to conserve battery power. For more information on
waking the tablet from Sleep mode, see “Waking the tablet” on
page 43. To change the amount of time it takes for the display to
darken, touch the Apps ( ) icon, swipe to the second screen
and touch the Settings ( ) icon, and then the Screen ( ) icon.
Increase battery life between charges by using the shortest available
time-out setting. See “Screen settings” on page72.
You can also place your tablet into Sleep mode by pressing the
Power button quickly.
Factors to consider when choosing Sleep mode:
❖While in Sleep mode, the device uses some battery power.
❖Because the state of the system is stored in memory, you will
lose data if the battery discharges completely while the device
is in Sleep mode.
