Chapter Three - 24 Managing Power Power Conservation This computer consumes much less power than conventional computers. However, power consumption may be reduced by configuring the Power Management Setup properly. It is recommended the power saving functions to be enabled even when not running on battery power. Power Management will not degrade performance while saving power. Supporting ACPI Your notebook computer supports ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) for power management. With ACPI and an ACPI-compliant operating system such as Windows, the feature will allow you to reduce the power consumption for energy saving. By supporting ACPI, the AC adapter LED and the Power indicator LED will show in different ways. The followings are the detailed description. Sleep: AC adapter LED is ON (while connecting with power) Power LED indicator is ON; Other LED indicators are OFF Under Hibernation: AC adapter LED is ON (while connecting with power) Power LED indicator is OFF; Other LED indicators are OFF Shutdown: AC adapter LED is ON (while connecting with power) Power LED indicator is OFF; Other LED indicators are OFF
