Benefits of Power4 Gear
Power4 Gear gives you control over power consumption items by allowing you to instantly “shift” from one
power consumption scheme to another. The preferences or “gears” are shown below. You can change or
“shift” gears by using the Power4 Gear button above the keyboard or by using the task bar icon. Power4 Gear
can also be automatically activated when AC power is removed.
