Power-up modes
The computer has three power-up modes:

■ Boot (does not save data in memory)

You can configure various settings associated with both Sleep Mode and
Hibernation Mode within the Power Options (to access it, click Start

Hibernation Mode, not for Shut Down Mode.

This feature turns the system off automatically if it is not used for a set
duration. The system shuts down in sleep mode or hibernation mode.
