Power Conservation Tips
The following tips can help ensure the longest possible battery run time for your system
batteries.
!
Change the display color depth setting from 16-million colors to 64K colors. This change is
not detectable in non-graphics applications, and expends less power. The system default
setting is 16M colors.
!
Install the LongRun™ utility, which is described in more detail later in this document. You
can use the LongRun utility to force the processor to run at a slower speed, extending
battery run time.
!
Note that add-in PC Cards increase battery usage, reducing battery run time.
!
Keep the unit fully charged when working near available AC power.
