Power conservation

Your PowerBook keeps track of what power source you are using and can change the power conservation settings to maximize battery conservation and performance for both the battery and the power adapter.

To change the power conservation settings, follow these steps:

Choose Control Panels from the Apple (K) menu, and open the PowerBook control panel. (Or use the Power Settings module in the Control Strip to open the PowerBook control panel.)

Slide the switch to Custom.

If necessary, click the Auto button to select it.

When Auto is selected, the computer will automatically use the settings you specify in step 5 whenever the selected power source is being used. (You can temporarily override your settings by returning to the PowerBook control panel and selecting Manual.)

4Choose the power source in the pop-up menu.

5Drag the sliders to the settings you want for the selected power source.

To use the preset power conservation settings for the selected power source, click Default. See “Adjusting the Battery Conservation Settings” earlier in this section for more help.

6Close the PowerBook control panel.
