Powering the

Computer

This chapter describes how to conserve your

computer’s battery and save energy using the

power management tools supplied.

Using the AC Power Adapter

The AC power adapter charges the battery
and runs the computer off power from an

electrical outlet. Use the adapter whenever
you have access to an outlet, especially when
you are using a PC card

Check the charge indicator light to monitor

charging status when you use the adapter.
