Conserving the Battery Power To conserve battery power on your laptop, do any of the following: • Connect the computer to an electrical outlet when possible; battery life is largely determined by the number of times the battery is used and recharged. • Configure the power management settings using Microsoft Windows Power Options to optimize your computer's power usage (see Setting Power Options). • Use the Sleep power state when you leave the computer unattended for long periods of time. 22 Battery
