If you connect the modem to a parallel connected phone line, the modem or the other connected device may not function properly. Some of these

connections may result in excess electrical current and could cause a malfunction in the internal modem.

Using power saving modes

When you use a battery as the source of power for your computer, you can take advantage of power

management settings to conserve battery life. 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

 

mode.

 

When using battery power, you should be aware that the computer automatically enters Hibernate mode

 

when the remaining battery charge drops below 7 percent, regardless of the power management setting

 

you select.

 

￿ If the battery level falls below 10 percent, you should either attach the AC adapter to recharge the battery or shut down your computer and insert a

 

fully charged battery.

 

Using Normal mode

 

This is the normal state of your computer when it is in use. The green power indicator light is on in this mode.

 

To save power, you can turn off a specific device such as the LCD or the hard disk.

 

Using Standby mode

 

The computer saves the current state of the system in RAM and switches off power to the CPU. The umber

 

power light flashes in this mode.

 

To activate Standby mode, proceed as follows:

 

Press <Fn>+<Esc> together.
