The Power4 Gear+ button toggles power savings between various power saving modes. The power saving
modes control many aspects of the Notebook PC to maximize performance versus battery time.
When you are using an AC power adapter, Power4 Gear+ will switch between modes in the AC power mode
segment. When you remove the AC adapter, Power4 Gear+ will switch between modes in the battery (DC)
