See Battery for more information on getting the best performance from battery packs.
Use your notebook computer G-MAX N501 connected to an electrical outlet as often as possible, as battery life expectancy is affected by the number of times it is charged and discharged.
One of the great features in your notebook computer G-MAX N501 aside from its superior performance is the ability to save energy power. Your notebook computer G-MAX N501 is designed to incorporate intelligent and advanced power management functions that turn off power of most components when system is idle or not in use. This does not affect the performance of your system as it monitors the activity of your notebook computer G-MAX N501 and resumes power and operating speed when activity is detected. This feature not only gives you longer battery hours but cooler systems and components as well. You can configure it, through the Power Options program in the Control Panel, to sleep, hibernate, and wake according to specific pre-defined situations.
When leaving your notebook computer G-MAX N501 unattended for long periods of times, place it in standby or hibernate mode. You can exit either power management mode by pressing the power button.
