Changing the backlight period
The backlight period is the length of time a backlit screen
remains illuminated before the computer turns it off
automatically. Although this power-saver feature is designed
mainly for the backlit model screen, follow these instructions if
you have the standard model to select no time limit. This
makes your computer run more efficiently.
The backlit screen draws power from the battery to stay
illuminated, and should last a long time. However, it gradually
loses some of its brightness, and may eventually need to be
replaced.
To help conserve the battery’s charge and extend the life of
the screen, the computer turns the backlighting off
automatically if you have not pressed a key for a certain length
