Extending battery life
Conserving battery power
While using the battery to power your notebook, conserve power by:
Dimming the display as low as is comfortable.
Removing PC Cards when you do not need them. Many PC Cards use a
small amount of power while inserted, even if they are not being used.
Modifying the power management settings for maximum power savings.
For more information, see “Changing power settings” on page 163.
Closing the LCD panel to turn off the display while you are not using your
notebook. The display stays off until you open the panel again.
Using Hibernate mode for maximum power savings while your notebook
is not in use. For more information, see “Activating and using Hibernate
mode” on page 168.
Using the CD, DVD, or recordable drive only when necessary. These drives
use a large amount of power.
Recharging the battery often, taking an extra battery, and fully recharging
the batteries before traveling. For more information, see “Recharging the
battery” on page 157 and “Changing batteries” on page 159.
Using an extended-life battery. You can purchase an extended-life battery
from the Accessories Store at accessories.gateway.com
