Selecting automatic profiles when running on batteries
A power profile is a set of timer values for a variety of system devices. PowerPanel automatically selects the
profile associated with the application you are using and changes profiles as you switch between
applications.
Power management lets your system enter energy saving modes by levelling some energy-consuming
parameters, such as LCD brightness, or hard disk activity.
To select automatic profiles, proceed as follows:
1 Right-click the PowerPanel icon in the taskbar and select Profiles.
2 Select Automatic Profile Selection.
✍ The Automatic Profile Selection feature deactivates when you manually select another power profile from the menu.

DVD – Optimises performance and power requirements for DVD usage.
Camera – Optimises performance and power requirements for camera usage.
Power Management Off (Running on batteries) – Turns off all power management features such as Standby
and Hibernate modes.
