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
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
NOTE:
The power consumption requirements for PC Cards vary widely. Some cards drain the battery pack very rapidly.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The table below shows battery pack charge times by model.
Computer
Model 1/NiMH Battery Pack
Model 2/Li ion Battery Pack
Battery Charge Time
On Line
4.0 hours premature termination
4.5 hours premature termination
Off Line
2:00 hr
2:50 hr
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 for Windows 98
The following power management features are available for conserving AC power and extending battery operating time:
Power Management Settings
Servicing Your Computer - Full Off Mode
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.)
IMPORTANT:
If you're on a network, it's recommended that you set System Standby to
Never.
There are five categories of power management settings under the Control Panel. The default setting for each feature is listed below in the tables.

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 wakeup, or if you lose power while using the AC adapter
.
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.

No Power LED, blank screen
If you need to install or replace components in your system, you must turn the computer off
. 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).
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 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

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.

The table shows how different activities generate static electricity and at different electrostatic voltage levels.
