❖ Where you are working—since operating time decreases
at low temperatures
Toshiba’s power-saving options greatly increase the length of
time you can use the computer before it becomes necessary to
recharge the battery.
Toshiba has combined these options into preset power usage
modes.
You may also set individual power-saving options to suit your
own needs. See “Power Management” on page 194 for
details.
What to do when the battery runs low
When the battery runs low you can:
❖
Plug the computer into an external power source and
recharge the battery.
❖ Put the computer in Hibernation mode and replace the
battery with a charged spare.
❖ Save your work and turn off the computer.
If you don’t manage to do any of these things before the
battery completely runs out of power, the computer
automatically enters Hibernation mode and turns itself off.
Hibernation mode keeps track of where you were so, when
you turn on the power again, you can continue where you left
off.
The computer stores the information on what you were doing
until the battery runs out of power. If you have Hibernation
mode enabled (the default), the computer copies the details of
your open programs and files to the hard disk before shutting
down.
