Toshiba TECRA M5 Intelligent power, Supply, Battery save mode, Panel power on/off, Low battery

	Introduction
Intelligent power	A microprocessor in the computer’s intelligent
supply	power supply detects the battery’s charge and
	calculates the remaining battery capacity. It also
	protects electronic components from abnormal
	conditions, such as voltage overload from an AC
	adaptor. You can monitor remaining battery
	capacity by using the Battery remaining item in
	TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Battery save mode	This feature lets you save battery power. You can
	specify the Power Save Mode in the Profile item
	in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Panel power on/off	This feature turns power to the computer off
	when the computer’s LCD display panel is closed
	and turns it back on when the computer’s LCD
	display panel is opened. You can specify the
	setting in the When I close the lid item of the
	Setup Actions tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Low battery	When battery power is exhausted to the point that
automatic	computer operation cannot be continued, the
hibernation	system automatically enters Hibernation and
	shuts down. You can specify the setting in the
	Setup Actions tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Heat dispersal	To protect from overheating, the CPU has an
	internal temperature sensor. If the computer’s
	internal temperature rises to a certain level, the
	cooling fan is turned on or the processing speed
	is lowered. Use the Cooling Method item of the
	Basic Setup tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Optical disk drive	Use this to turn the power of the optical disk drive
power icon	on or off. Clicking on the optical disk drive icon on
	the taskbar will turn the power of the optical disk
	drive on or off. If the optical disk drive power is
	off, the disc tray will not open even if the eject
	button is pushed. The power of the optical disk
	drive can be turned on using the optical disk drive
	icon.
HDD Protection	Using the acceleration sensor built in the
	computer, HDD Protection detects vibration,
	shocks, and those signs in the computer, and
	automatically moves the HDD (Hard Disk Drive)
	head to the safe position to reduce the risk of
	damage that could be caused to the disk by
	head-to-disk contact. Refer to the Using the Hard
	Disk Drive (HDD) Protection section in Chapter 4,
	Operating Basics, for details.
