When battery power is exhausted to the point that computer operation cannot be continued, the system automatically enters Hibernation Mode and shuts itself down. This can be specified in the Power Options.

Heat dispersal *1

To protect against overheating, the processor has

 

an internal temperature sensor so that, 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.

 

 

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