Conserving battery power

How long a fully charged battery pack lasts when you are
using the device depends on a number of factors, such as:

❖
How much you use the internal storage drive, optical

❖
Where you are working, since operating time decreases

and extend the operating time of your battery:
❖
Enable Sleep or Hibernation, which saves power when
you turn off the device and turn it back on again
❖
