the display of text and graphics. (Figure 1-7.)

intensity of the display panel back lighting.

tery in either Multi-function Bay), floppy disk

Stereo Speakers
The built-in dual speakers output stereo sound
from the notebook. (Figure 1-7)
Suspend/Resume Button
The Suspend/Resume button allows you to sus-
pend notebook activity without turning off the
notebook power, and to return it to an active
state. This feature saves power, and is particu-
larly useful when the notebook is running only
on battery power. (See pages 48-53 and 107-112
for more information on power management.)
(Figure 1-7.)
Closed Cover Switch
The closed cover switch turns off the LCD back
lighting when the display panel is closed, thus
saving power. This switch also behaves as a
Suspend/Resume button, when the closed
cover switch is set to Suspend/Resume in the
BIOS Setup Utility. (see pages 95-102 for more
information on the BIOS Setup Utility)
(Figure 1-7.)

active for your Suspend/Resume button
before you use it. Misuse can result in

of the BIOS setup utility, pages 107-112,
for more information.)

keys for input into the notebook.
