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.
