Working w ith the notebook
Using the power-management features
PowerPowerBattery
The notebook uses less power when the available power-management fe atures are used. You
will then be able to work longer when using the battery before having to recharge it.
Power efficiency is increased and environmental pollution reduced. By
choosing the best power options, you can m ake significant savings and
at the same time help protect the environment.
When you close the LC D screen , depending on the setting in Windows, the
notebook automatically enters a power saving mode.
► Select the power manag ement functions in your C ontrol Panel.
If you need further information about an option, you can ge t help with most
settings by pressing
