❖

Where you are working—since operating time decreases 
at low temperatures

Toshiba’s power-saving options greatly increase the length of 
time you can use the computer before it becomes necessary to 
recharge the battery.

Toshiba has combined these options into preset power usage 
modes. 

When the battery runs low you can

:

❖

Plug the computer into an external power source and 
recharge the battery.

❖

Put the computer in Hibernate mode and replace the 
battery with a charged spare.

❖

Save your work and turn off the computer.

If you do not manage to do any of these things before the 
battery completely runs out of power, the computer 
automatically enters Hibernate mode and turns itself off. 
Hibernate mode keeps track of where you were so, when you 
turn on the power again, you can continue where you left off. 

The computer stores the information on what you were doing 
until the battery runs out of power. If you have Hibernate 
mode enabled (the default), the computer copies the details of 
your open programs and files to the hard disk before shutting 
down.

Your computer can be configured to warn you when the 
battery is running low.

You can set multiple alarms. Each alarm can be set to alert 
you when a specified percentage of remaining battery power 
has been reached. You can set how the warning occurs: sound 
an alarm, display a message, both, or none. You can also set
