Monitoring main battery power
❖
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 Toshiba's power-saving options
These power-saving options control the way in which the
computer is configured. By using them, you can increase the
length of time you can use the computer before you need to
recharge the battery.
Toshiba has combined these options into preset Power
Profiles. Using one of these profiles lets you choose between
maximum power savings and peak system performance. You
may also set individual power-saving options to suit your own
needs.
The following sections describe how to choose a Power
Profile and discuss each power-saving option.
Power Profiles
You can choose a predefined Power Profile or select your
own combination of power management options. To do this:
1
Click Start, Control Panel, Performance and
Maintenance, and then Toshiba Power Saver.
