Chapter 3
Mobile Computing
This chapter covers many of the aspects of using your
computer on battery power.

Toshiba's energy-saver design

Your computer enters a low-power, standby mode when it is
not being used, thereby conserving energy and saving money
in the process. It has a number of other features that enhance
its energy efficiency.
Many of these energy-saving features have been set by
Toshiba. We recommend you leave these features active,
allowing your computer to operate at its maximum energy
efficiency, so that you can use it for longer periods of time
while traveling.

Running the computer on battery power

The computer contains a removable Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion)
high-capacity battery that provides power when you are away
from an AC outlet. You can recharge it many times.
