27Getting Started 3NOTE: You will be warned when battery power is low. If you continue to ignore the low battery warnings, the Notebook PC eventually enters suspend mode (Windows default uses STR).WARNING!  Suspend-to-RAM (STR) does not last long when the battery power is depleted. Suspend-to-Disk (STD) is not the same as power OFF. STD requires a small amount of power and will fail if no power is available due to complete battery depletion or no power supply (e.g. removing both the power adapter and battery pack).Right-click the battery icon for sub-menus. Left-click the battery icon for power management settings.Note: Screen captures shown here are examples only and may not re-ÁHFWZKDW\RXVHHLQ\RXUV\VWHPMove your mouse over the battery icon for remaining power information.When the AC power is connected, charging status will be shown.WARNING!  Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge over time. If not using a battery pack, it must continued to be charged every three months to extend recovery capacity or else it may fail to charge in the future. NOTE: The battery stops charging if the temperature is too high or the battery voltage is too high. BIOS provides a smart battery refreshing function. If the battery calibration process fails, stop charging and contact an authorized service center.Checking Battery PowerThe battery system implements the Smart Battery standard under the Windows environment, which allows the battery to accurately report the amount of charge left in the battery.

484    Using the Notebook PCPower Management ModesThe Notebook PC has a number of automatic or adjustable power saving features that you can use to maximize battery life and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). You can control some of these features through the Power menu in the BIOS Setup. ACPI power management settings are made through the operating system. The power management features are designed to save as much electricity as possible by putting components into a low power consumption mode as often as possible but also allow full operation on demand. These low power modes are referred to as “Stand by” (or Suspend-to-RAM) and ´+LEHUQDWLRQµPRGHRU6XVSHQGWR'LVN67'7KH6WDQGE\PRGHLVDVLPSOHIXQFWLRQSURYLGHGE\WKHoperating system.

504    Using the Notebook PC“Stand by” is the same as Suspend-to-RAM (STR). This function stores your current data and status in RAM while many components are turned OFF. Because RAM is volatile, it requires power to keep (refresh) the data. To operate: select “Start” | “Shut down”, and “Stand by”.“Hibernate” LV WKH VDPH DV  6XVSHQGWR'LVN 67' DQGstores your current data and status on the hard disk drive. By doing this, RAM does not have to be periodically refreshed and power consumption is greatly reduced but not completely eliminated because certain wake-up components like LAN needs to remain powered. “Hibernate” saves more power compared to “Stand by”. To operate: Enable hibernation in “Power Options” and select “Start” | “Shut down”, and “Hibernate”.Stand by and HibernatePower management settings can be found in the Windows control panel.
