Benefits of Hibernation Mode
The Hibernation Mode feature provides the following benefits:
■ Saves data to the hard disk drive when the computer automatically
shuts down because of a low battery condition.
■ You can return to your previous working environment immediately when
you turn on the computer.
■ Saves power by shutting down the system when the computer receives
no input or hardware access for the time period set by the System
Hibernate feature.
■ Allows the use of the panel power off feature.
Starting Hibernation Mode
To enter Hibernation Mode, follow the steps below.
1. Click Quit button.
2. Select Hibernate.
Data save in Hibernation Mode
When you turn off the power in Hibernation Mode, the computer will take
a moment to save the current data in memory to the hard disk drive. During
this time, the Hard Disk Drive indicator will glow.
After you turn off the computer, and the content of memory has been saved
to the hard disk drive, turn off the power to any peripheral devices.
Suspend Mode
The computer will enter Suspend Mode automatically when you close the lid.
In Suspend mode the power remains on, but the processor and all other
devices are in Suspend mode.
You can also enable Hibernation Mode by pressing FN + F4 - please refer
to Chapter 5, The Keyboard , for further details.
Do not turn the computer or peripheral devices back on immediately - wait
a short period to avoid any potential damage.
Turning Off Your Computer where Electronic Devices are Regulated or
Controlled.
When you have to turn off your computer aboard an aircraft or in places
where electronic devices are regulated or controlled, always shut down
the computer completely or put the computer into Hibernation mode
instead of allowing it to go into Suspend mode. Also ensure that you
disable wireless communication and turn off any wireless communication
devices. While in Suspend mode the computer operating system may
reactivate itself to run pre-programmed tasks or to preserve unsaved data,
and might interfere with aviation or other systems, possibly causing
serious injury.
