POWER MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW
Power Management in the NEC Versa 6000 lets you conserve energy, save battery power,
extend the life of your LCD backlight, and protect against data loss due to low battery
power.
Set some features to function automatically or activate them manually with the keyboard or
a button. It is wise to keep Power Management features enabled, even when using AC
power.
The system arrives set up with many power-saving features already enabled. See the follow-
