Using the TOSHIBA eco power plan
This computer is equipped with the Toshiba eco power plan.
Operating the computer with this power plan enabled reduces
electrical power consumption by slightly lowering system
performance. For example, when this power plan is enabled, the
brightness of the display is reduced and the interval before Sleep
mode takes effect is shortened. To enable or disable the eco power
plan, press the eco utility™ button.
(Sample Illustration) Locating the eco utility™ button
The Toshiba eco utility™ monitors your power savings from using
the eco power plan by tracking real-time power consumption and
accumulated savings over time. To learn how to access the utility,
see “TOSHIBA eco Utility™” on page 176.
For more information on the Toshiba eco power plan, see the Help
file in the TOSHIBA eco Utility window.
