LCD Sensor switch

This switch senses when the display panel is
either closed or opened and activates the Panel
Power Off/On feature as appropriate. For
example, when you close the display panel the
computer enters Hibernation Mode and shuts
itself down and then, when you next open the
display, the computer will automatically start up
and return you to the application you were
previously working on.

You can specify within the Power Options. To
access it, click Start -> Control Panel -> System
and Security
-> Power Options.

Do not put any magnetic objects close to this switch as they may cause the
computer to automatically enter Hibernation Mode and shut down even if
the Panel Power Off feature is disabled.

power supply malfunctions, this indicator will
flash orange.
