Setting Battery Conservation Levels - Compaq Armada 4200 Reference Manual

Setting Battery Conservation Levels

To extend the life of your battery, customize the level of battery
conservation or click one of three preset conservation levels.
Medium, the factory setting, is in effect until you change it.
You can change the default levels of battery conservation by
pressing Fn+F7 to display a popup window indicating the current
level. Use the left or right arrow keys to select a different level.
Battery Conservation Levels
High Conservation: Saves the most battery power. This level
supplies the most battery life from a single charge.
Medium Conservation: Provides a balance between system
performance and battery life. This is the factory setting.
None (Drain): Turns off battery conservation features, and the
system runs at full speed. Hibernation is factory-enabled on your
computer, so that your system initiates Hibernation automatically
when it reaches a low-battery condition. However, if you manually
disable Hibernation and set battery conservation to None (Drain),
the computer will not initiate Hibernation automatically.
CAUTION:
(Drain), make sure the Hibernation feature has not been disabled.
