Conserving battery power
To conserve power while using the battery to power your convertible
tablet PC:
Dim the display as low as is comfortable. For dim or dark
environments, use the XtraBright/XtraDim button to set your
display to the dimmest setting possible.
Remove PC Cards when you do not need them. Many PC Cards use
a small amount of power while inserted, even if they are not being
used.
Modify the power management settings for maximum power
savings.
Close the LCD panel to turn off the display while you are not using
your convertible tablet PC. The display stays off until you open the
panel again.
Use Hibernate mode for maximum power savings while your
convertible tablet PC is not in use.
