Using the Battery

Your computer, depending on the model you purchased, may come equipped with one battery bay and one multipurpose

bay that supports a second battery. If your computer comes with two bays, you can purchase a second rechargeable

battery to extend your computing time. For information on how to extend the life of the battery, see Conserving Battery

Power for more information.

When operating your computer on battery power, your computer's CPU speed is reduced.

The battery that comes with your computer is not fully charged at the time of purchase.

The brightness of your computer screen automatically dims when you switch from AC power to battery power. To

increase the brightness, press the Fn and F5 keys, and then press the Up Arrow or Right Arrow key.

Conserving Battery Power

You may use the power saving modes and PowerPanel utility to conserve battery power. Conserving battery power may

significantly extend your computing time, depending on how you use your computer.

Page 9

Using power saving modes

In addition to the normal operating mode, which allows you to turn off specific devices, your computer has two distinct

power saving modes: Standby and Hibernate. Use the Standby and Hibernate power saving modes to override a power

profile setting and initiate immediate action.

Standby —Saves the state of the system and peripheral devices in memory (RAM). Power consumption is reduced

to a minimum. The system remains on, and the computer screen (LCD) is off.

Hibernate —Saves the state of the system and peripheral devices to the hard disk. Power consumption is reduced

to the lowest possible setting without being completely off. Hibernate mode consumes the lowest level of power.

Your computer enters Hibernate mode when the remaining battery charge drops below 5 percent, regardless of the

setting you select.

Since some programs and peripheral devices prevent the system from entering Hibernate mode, save your data

frequently to avoid data loss.

To activate Standby mode

1. Press the Fn and Esc keys. The power indicator blinks in this mode.

2. Press any key to return to normal mode.

To activate Hibernate mode

1. Press the Fn and F12 keys, or press the power button and release it immediately. Do not move the computer

until the power indicator turns off.

2. Press the power button to return to normal mode.

If your computer does not activate Hibernate mode, see Battery for more information.
