Page 48 highlights

Saving Battery Power If you are using the hard disk while the computer is running on the battery, remember that it uses more battery power. You can reduce the power consumption, however, with the following conservation measures: Define a timeout period for the hard disk through the Setup program. See Chapter 5 for instructions. Use the suspend/resume switch to place the computer in Suspend mode when you are not using your computer but you want to leave it turned on. See "Using the Suspend/Resume Switch" in Chapter 3. Note To reactivate the system from Suspend mode, press the key. Using Memory Your computer comes with 2MB, 4MB, or 8MB of memory, and you may have installed an optional expansion memory module to increase the total amount. This section describes how the memory in your computer works. Also be sure to see your MS-DOS manual for complete information on memory management. A computer's memory is divided into three types: conventional, reserved, and extended. The following diagram shows the relationships between these types of memory and their addresses.

If you are using the hard disk while the computer is running on
the battery, remember that it uses more battery power. You can
reduce the power consumption, however, with the following
conservation measures:
Define a timeout period for the hard disk through the Setup
program. See Chapter 5 for instructions.
Use the suspend/resume switch to place the computer

Your computer comes with 2MB, 4MB, or 8MB of memory, and
you may have installed an optional expansion memory module
to increase the total amount. This section describes how the
memory in your computer works. Also be sure to see your
MS-DOS manual for complete information on memory
management.
A computer’s memory is divided into three types:
conventional, reserved, and extended. The following diagram
shows the relationships between these types of memory and
their
addresses.
