Working with the notebook
Using the power-management features
PowerPowerBattery
The notebook uses less power when the available power-management features are used. You
will then be able to w ork longer when using the battery before having to recharge it.
Power efficiency is increased and environ m ental pollution reduced. By
choosing the best power options, you can make significant savings a nd
at the same time help pro tect the environment.
When you close the LCD scre en, depending on the setting in Windows, the
notebook au tomatically enters a power saving mode.
We recommend the following settings:

When the notebook is in power-saving mode, the following must be remembered:
During power saving mode, open files are held in the main memory
orinaswapfile on the hard disk.
Never turn off your notebook while it is in a power saving mode. If the built-in battery is
nearly empty, close the open files and do not go into power saving mode.
If you do not intend to use your note book for a lo ng period of time:
