Power Management
Your system is compatible with the ACPI power saving system.
The basic power management settings can be found under the following in Windows op- erating systems: <Settings> <Power Options>. If you have questions, use the Windows Help function.
Here you can set the behavior separately for various battery charge levels. Standby: – low energy consumption –
The display is dimmed and the hard disk remains unchanged. The power LED flashes. By pressing the on/off button, the computer returns to the normal operating state. The user must log on again.
Sleep: – without power adapter no energy consumption –
The current operating state is saved to the hard disk; the computer is switched off. All open documents or applications become available again when the computer is switched on.
Switching off the notebook and disconnecting it from the power supply (pulling the plug of the power adapter) can prevent any energy consumption.
