Medium, the factory setting, is in effect until you change it. You can change the default levels of battery conservation by pressing Fn+F7 to display a popup window indicating the current level. Use the left or right arrow keys to select a different level. Battery Conservation Levels s High Conservation: Saves the most battery power. This level supplies the most battery life from a single charge. s Medium Conservation: Provides a balance between system performance and battery life. This is the factory setting. s None (Drain): Turns off battery conservation features, and the system runs at full speed. Hibernation is factory-enabled on your computer, so that your system initiates Hibernation automatically when it reaches a low-battery condition.

supplies the most battery life from a single charge.
■
Medium Conservation:
Provides a balance between system
performance and battery life. This is the factory setting.
■

Turns off battery conservation features, and the
system runs at full speed. Hibernation is factory-enabled on your
computer, so that your system initiates Hibernation automatically
when it reaches a low-battery condition.

the computer will not initiate Hibernation automatically.
CAUTION:
Before setting your battery conservation level to None
