Conserving battery power
How long a fully charged battery pack lasts when you are
using the computer depends on a number of factors, such as:
❖
How the computer is configured
❖
How much you use the hard disk, DVD-ROM or multi-
function drive, diskette drives, or other optional devices
❖
Where you are working, since operating time decreases at
low temperatures
There are various ways in which you can conserve power and
extend the operating time of your battery:
❖
Enable Standby or Hibernation, which saves power when
you turn off the computer and turn it back on again
❖
Use the power schemes in the Power Options Properties
