Getting Started

Sleep Mode

If you have to interrupt your work, you are able to turn off the power without

exiting from your software by placing the computer into Sleep Mode. In this

mode data is maintained in the computer's main memory so that when you

turn on the power again, you can continue working right where you left off.

Benefits of Sleep Mode

The Sleep Mode feature provides the following benefits:

Restores the previous working environment more rapidly than does the

Hibernation Mode feature.

Saves power by shutting down the system when the computer receives

no input or hardware access for the time period set by the System

Sleep Mode feature.

Allows the use of the panel power off feature.

When you have to turn off your computer aboard an aircraft or in places

where electronic devices are regulated or controlled, always completely

shut down the computer. This includes turning off any wireless

communication switches or devices, and canceling settings that reactivate

the computer automatically, such as a timer recording function. Failure to

completely shut down the computer in this way could allow the operating

system to reactivate and run pre-programmed tasks or preserve unsaved

data, which could interfere with aviation or other systems, possibly

causing serious injury.

Before entering Sleep Mode, be sure to save your data.

Do not remove the battery pack while the computer is in Sleep Mode

(unless the computer is connected to an AC power source). Data in

memory could be lost.

When the AC adaptor is connected, the computer will go into Sleep

Mode according to the settings in the Power Options (to access it, tap

Start  Control Panel  System and Security  Power Options).

To restore the operation of the computer from Sleep Mode, press and

hold the power button for a short amount of time.

If the computer enters Sleep Mode while a network application is

active, the application might not be restored when the computer is next

turned on and the system returns from Sleep Mode.

To prevent the computer from automatically entering Sleep Mode,

disable Sleep Mode within the Power Options (to access it, tap Start 

Control Panel  System and Security  Power Options).

To use the Hybrid Sleep function, configure it in the Power Options.
