Power and Power-Up Modes

The computer's power resources include the AC adaptor and internal

batteries. This chapter gives details on making the most effective use of

these resources including charging and changing batteries, tips for saving

battery power, and power up modes.

Power conditions

The computer's operating capability and battery charge status are affected

by the power conditions: whether an AC adaptor is connected, whether a
