Using the energy saving functions
EnergyEnergyBattery
The notebook uses less power when the available energy-saving functions are used. You will
then be able to work longer when using the battery before havin g to recharge it.
The energy efficiency is increased and environmental p ollution i s reduced.
By choosing the best power options, you can make signi ficant savings and
at the same time help protect the environment.
When you fold down and close the LCD screen, depe nding on the setting in Windows,
the notebook automatically enters a power saving mode.
