Working with 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 make 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 management functions in your Control Panel.
If yo u need further information about an option, you can get help about most settings
by pressing the key combination
