LCD
Panel
Another video feature includes a CRT port on the system's rear panel that allows the user to
connect an optional monochrome or color external display to the system. The computer can
support the LCD and external display simultaneously.
Power-saving features for controlling the LCD's backlighting include the ROM-based hot
key combination Fn F5, and Auto Setup power management settings. See Section 2, Setup
and Operation, for information on using these settings. In addition, the automatic LCD
status feature conserves the backlight. When the LCD is closed the backlight shuts off
automatically, saving battery power.
Power Button
Slide the Power button to the right to power on and power off the computer. The Power
button is a “smart” switch, meaning that it recognizes when the system is in Suspend mode.
If in Suspend mode, you cannot power off until you press the Suspend button again to bring
the system out of Suspend mode.
