Apple Power Macintosh 4400 - Manual (Page 22)

Saving energy with the Energy Saver control panel
When you save energy, you save natural resources and reduce pollution. Your
Power Macintosh contains features that automatically save energy. You can
increase the savings by using the Energy Saver control panel to shut down
your computer if you won’t be using it for a while—for example, overnight or
over the weekend.
The Energy Saver dialog box (shown in step 3 of “Turning the Computer On
for the First Time” earlier in this chapter) appears every time you start up
your computer until you open the Energy Saver control panel. Once you open
the control panel, you can keep the preset options shown there or set your
own energy-saving options. If you do not want to set your energy-saving
options when the Energy Saver dialog box is displayed, you can click Close
Message or press Return (the Energy Saver dialog box continues to appear
when you start up your computer).
Setting energy-saving options
You can get to the Energy Saver control panel by clicking Specify Settings in
the Energy Saver dialog box that appears when you start up your computer or
by choosing Control Panels in the Apple (K) menu.
The Energy Saver control panel displays options you can accept or change.
For more information on using the Energy Saver control panel, see the
“Saving Energy” topic area of Macintosh Guide, available in the
Guide (h) menu.
