Energy-efficient features
Most models in the range comply with the requirements of
the US Environmental Protection Agency’s “Energy Star”
programme for energy-efficient computers. These models
support:
• System Management Mode (SMM) of Intel SL Enhanced
processors.
• VESA BIOS Extensions for Power Management (VBE/
PM), for use with energy-efficient monitors that support
Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS).
Models fitted with very-high-capacity hard disk drives may be
unable to comply with Energy Star. Ask your supplier for more
information.
