•
Decrease or mute speaker volume.
•
Turn off all scheduled tasks.
•
Turn off auto-save features in Microsoft Office and other
applications.
•
Copy programs from CDs or DVDs to the hard drive so
you do not use battery power by running optical drives.
•
Use the DVD drive only when necessary. This drive uses
a large amount of power.
•
Recharge the battery often, take an extra battery, and
fully recharge the batteries before traveling. For more
information, see
“Recharging the battery” on page 64
.
Using alternate power sources
To extend battery life, use alternate power sources whenever
possible.
•
If traveling internationally, take electrical adapters. Save
the battery for times when you cannot use a power
adapter. If you plan on taking your AC power adapter,
also take a single-plug surge protector.
•
If you will have access to an EmPower™ in-flight power
receptacle, an automobile power outlet, or an
automobile cigarette lighter, use an airplane/
automobile power adapter or power inverter. Save the
battery for times when you cannot use a power adapter.
•
To find AC power outlets in airports, look for them next
to support pillars, in large areas such as boarding gates,
and under banks of telephones.
