Manufacturer’s notes
ENERGY STAR Compliance
Your Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR quali
fi
ed mobile PC. By
choosing a computer with the latest energy-saving technology, you’re
helping to preserve our environment for future generations. ENERGY
STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,
U.S. Department of Energy, Natural Resources Canada, and other
governments around the world helping us save money while protecting
the environment through energy ef
fi
cient products and practices. With
energy costs and global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu is
committed to offering solutions that help consumers conserve energy
and improve the quality of our environment.
Sleep mode:
You will notice that your computer is initially set so that, when connected to the AC adapter,
the display turns off after 10 minutes of user inactivity, and the computer goes into Sleep
mode after 30 minutes of user inactivity. When running on battery, the display turns off after
5 minutes and the computer goes into Sleep mode after 15 minutes. When going into Sleep
mode, the computer also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network links. To “wake”
the computer from Sleep mode, press the Suspend/Resume Button.
Energy saving benefits:
Fujitsu ENERGY STAR quali
fi
ed mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standard
equipment – saving half in utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a difference
for the environment. Did you know that the average house can be responsible for twice the
greenhouse gas emissions as the average car? That’s because every time you
fl
ip on a light
switch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more greenhouse
gas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy ef
fi
ciency,
the more we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming.
