Battery Pack Operating Time  
This appendix covers the following information concerning battery pack operating time:  
Increase battery pack operating time  
Conditioning a battery pack  
Disposal of a used battery pack  
Increasing Battery Pack Operating Time  
Battery pack operating time differs depending on several variables. To avoid unnecessary  
replacement, consider the following variables when determining how long a charged battery pack  
should last:  
Power management settings  
Hardware configuration  
Software applications  
Installed options  
Display brightness  
Hard drive usage  
Changes in operating temperature  
Type and number of installed PC Cards  
The power consumption requirements for PC Cards vary widely. Some cards drain  
the battery pack very rapidly.  
NOTE:  
Battery pack operating time can be increased by as much as 50 percent by controlling the energy  
required by the computer and the energy stored in the battery pack.  
Minimizing the Energy Required  
To minimize the energy required by the computer, follow these steps:  
Set the power conservation levels in the Power Management utility to Maximum.  
Customize the timeout value to work more efficiently with the applications. The  
amount of battery life depends on the values selected.  
Maximizing the Energy Stored  
To maximize the energy stored in the battery pack, follow these guidelines:  
Condition the battery pack at least every 30 days to improve overall battery  
performance.  
Keep a battery pack in the computer when using it with AC power to supply the  
battery pack with a constant trickle charge.  
Store the battery pack in a cool, dry place when not in use.  
Conditioning a Battery Pack  
CAUTION: To avoid a loss of data, ensure that all data is saved before discharging a  
battery pack.  
To condition a battery pack, complete the following steps:  
1. Plug in the AC adapter and allow the battery to charge until the fast charge arrow on  
the display disappears. Your battery gauge may read 100 percent for a period of time  
before the arrow disappears. Do not unplug the AC adapter until the arrow disappears.  
2. Unplug the AC adapter and allow the battery to drain until the computer reaches  
hibernation and turns itself off. Do not plug in the AC adapter during this process  
or you will need to restart with Step No. 1. You may use the computer while the  
battery is draining.  
3. Your battery is re- conditioned.  
4. Plug in the AC adapter and begin using the computer.

Disposal of a Used Battery Pack  
In the interest of safeguarding our environment. Compaq Computer Corporation recommends that  
nickel metal hydride (NiMH) and lithium ion (Li ion) battery packs be recycled. Battery packs  
should be handled in accordance with country, state, province, or local regulations.  
CAUTION: Never attempt to open or service a battery pack. Opening a battery pack  
not only damages the pack and makes it unusable, but also expose potentially harmful  
battery components.

Power Management Settings  
Depending on your patterns of computer use, you can set different levels of power management.  
These different power management levels can be activated based on the amount of time passed  
since the last system activity. System activity examples, include keyboard or mouse movement,  
CD (while under program control that monitors Sleep), and modem use.  
You can select different conditions or power schemes through Power Management..The optional  
settings are Home/Office Desk, Portable/ Laptop and Always On. From the default settings,  
you can change the following settings.  
the System goes to Sleep (Standby) mode  
the screen times out and goes blank  
the hard drive spins down  
Each of these system components will go to sleep after the selected or default periods of inactivity.  
(The setting for hard drive must be less than or equal to the setting for System.)  
If you're on a network, it's recommended that you set System Standby to  
Never.  
IMPORTANT:  
There are five categories of power management settings under the Control Panel. The default  
setting for each feature is listed below in the tables.

Sleep  
You can select Sleep mode instead of turning off the computer when you have finished using it.  
This allows the computer to wake up faster than turning it completely off and saves power over the  
active (On) mode. Compaq Presario Notebook computers have two levels of sleep, Hibernation and  
Sleep.  
Hibernation - by pushing the power button once your computer will perform a save to disk  
followed by a shut down of the computer into Off mode.  
Sleep - is a low power mode, also referred to as Standby mode. While in Sleep mode, your  
computer will maintain system information and open files. Unsaved information will be lost if you  
turn off your system prior to system wake-up, or if you lose power while using the AC adapter.  
CAUTION: While in Sleep mode, your computer will maintain system information and open  
files. Unsaved information will be lost if you turn off your system prior to system wake-  
up, or if you lose power while using the AC adapter.  
Hibernation Mode  
Hibernation helps conserve battery life and protects your data. Hibernation can be a routine power  
saving event, or can be the result of a low battery condition. As it enters Hibernation, your  
computer will display a progress screen, as it automatically saves the machine state before it shuts  
down and turns itself off. Your computer will automatically go into Hibernation, when the battery  
has little power left, or when the system (operating on battery power) has been in Sleep mode for  
more than an hour. You can also manually initiate Hibernation by pressing the power button once  
while the system is active. To restore the computer's previous state, simply press the power button  
once again. While waking up, the computer will display a progress screen.  
The following table shows the conditions and indicators for getting in and out of the various power  
management modes, Sleep, Hibernation and Off.

Servicing Your Computer - Full Off Mode  
If you need to install or replace components in your system, you must turn the computer off  
completely. Follow the instructions above for properly putting the computer into Off mode, unplug  
from the outlet and remove the battery (see battery section for instruction on removing battery).  
Rebooting After a Lockup  
Occasionally you may encounter a frozen keyboard or a locked screen. To reboot your computer  
(as if from a cold start) press and hold down the Power Button for at least four seconds, which will  
cause a manual shutdown. Then, restart it with a single press of the Power Button. If it still doesn't  
recover, press the Power Button and hold it for four seconds to shut it down, then, remove the  
battery or unplug the AC power for at least 30 seconds. Reinsert the battery or reconnect AC  
power and press the Power Button once to reboot.  
Battery Operating Time  
Battery operating time is affected by variables, such as the following:  
Power conservation settings  
Hardware configuration  
Software applications  
Installed options  
Display brightness  
Hard drive usage  
Power button  
Changes in operating temperature  
Type and number of installed PC Cards  
For more information on increasing battery pack operating time, conditioning the battery pack, and  
disposing of a used battery pack, refer to the Battery Pack Operations.

Electrostatic Discharge  
A sudden discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can  
destroy static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Often the spark is neither  
felt nor heard, but damage occurs. An electronic device exposed to  
electrostatic discharge (ESD) may not be affected at all and will work  
perfectly throughout a normal cycle. Although, it may function normally for a  
while, then degrade in the internal layers, reducing its life expectancy.  
Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in  
many cases, the discharge contains enough power to alter device parameters  
or melt silicon junctions.

different electrostatic voltage levels.

Cables and Connectors  
Most cables used throughout the unit are ribbon cables. Cables must be handled with  
extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to seat or unseat the  
cables during insertion or removal from the connector. Handle cables by the connector  
whenever possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing the cables, and  
ensure that the cables are routed in such a way that they cannot be caught or snagged  
by parts being removed or replaced.
