Working with the noteb ook
Using the power-management features
PowerPowerBattery
The notebook uses less power when the available power-mana gement fe atures are used. You

Power efficiency is increased and environmental pollution reduced. By
choosing the best power options, you can make significant savings and
at the same time help protect the environment.
When you close the LC D screen , depending on the setting in W indows, the
notebook automatically enters a power saving mode.
► Select the pow er management functions in your Control Panel.
