Sleep or hibernation problems

The critical low-battery error message appears, and the computer immediately turns off.

The computer enters sleep mode immediately after Power-on self-test (POST).

The battery power is getting low. Connect the AC adapter to the computer, or replace the battery with a fully charged one.

Make sure that:

-The battery is charged.

-The operating temperature is within the acceptable range. See “Chapter 2. Use and care Information” of Lenovo Safety and General Information Guide.

Note: If the battery is charged and the temperature is within range, have the computer serviced.

The computer does not return from sleep mode and the computer does not work.

If the computer does not return from sleep mode, it may have entered hibernation mode automatically because the battery is depleted. Check the power indicator.

If your computer is in sleep mode, connect the AC adapter to the computer, then press any key or the power button.

If your computer is in hibernation mode or power-off state, connect the AC adapter to the computer, then press the power button to resume operation.

Note: If the system still does not return from sleep mode, your system has stopped responding, and you cannot turn off the computer; reset the computer. Unsaved data may be lost.
