Conserving Battery Power
When using the notebook computer with a battery, the LCD display and
the hard drive can be set to switch off automatically to conserve battery
power (Power Management function). For details, refer to page 41.
Opening the PowerPanel
The PowerPanel software supplied with the notebook computer allows
you to make power conservation settings to suit your usage
requirements.
When you start the notebook, the PowerPanel icon appears in the
taskbar at the bottom of the display screen (factory default setting). It is
operated with the Jog Dial control.
Displaying the PowerPanel Toolbar
To display the PowerPanel toolbar, right-click the taskbar and select
Toolbars from the pop-up menu. Then, click PowerPanel and the
PowerPanel toolbar appears in the taskbar. When you point to a button, a
tool-tip appears showing the function of the button.
You can display the PowerPanel toolbar on the right of the screen by
dragging it to the right.
