Conserving Battery Power
Display Brightness
The LCD display consumes a lot of power, so lowering the bright-
ness level will save power.
Applications and External Devices
Different applications and external devices consume battery power
even when they are not being used.
To conserve battery power we recommend:
• Closing modem or communication applications when they are not
being used.
• Removing any unused PC Cards from the computer (PC Cards quickly
use up battery power even if the system enters Suspend mode).
• Disconnecting any unnecessary external devices from the computer.
