Satellite A660/A660D, Satellite A665/A665D

Intelligent powerA microprocessor in the computer’s intelligent
supply *1power supply detects the battery’s charge,

 

automatically calculates the remaining battery

 

capacity and protects electronic components

 

from abnormal conditions such as a voltage

 

overload from the AC adaptor. This can be

 

specified in the Power Options.

 

 

Battery save mode *1This feature lets you configure the computer in

 

order to save battery power. This can be

 

specified in the Power Options.

 

 

Panel power on/off *1This feature automatically turns power to the

 

computer off when the display panel is closed,

 

and turns it back on when the display panel is

 

opened. This can be specified in the Power

 

Options.

 

 

Low battery

When battery power is exhausted to the point that

automaticcomputer operation cannot be continued, the
Hibernation Mode *1system automatically enters Hibernation Mode

 

and shuts itself down. This can be specified in the

 

Power Options.

 

 

Heat dispersal *1To 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. This can be specified in the Power

 

Options.

 

 

 

Maximum Performance

 

Turns on the fan first, then lowers the CPU

 

processing speed if necessary.

 

 

 

Battery Optimized

 

Lowers the CPU processing speed first, then

 

turns on the fan if necessary.

 

 

If the processor’s temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with either setting, the computer will automatically shut down to prevent any damage - in this instance any unsaved data in memory will be lost.

TOSHIBA HDD

This feature uses the acceleration sensor built in

Protectionthe computer to detect vibration and shocks, and

 

automatically moves the hard disk drive’s

 

read/write head to a safe position in order to

 

reduce the risk of damage that could be caused

 

by head-to-disk contact. Refer to the Using the

 

Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Protection section in

 

Chapter 4, Operating Basics, for more details.
