P O I N T

■If your LifeBook notebook is actively accessing information when you enter the Suspend or Hiber- nation (Save-to-Disk) mode, changes to open files are not lost. The files are left open and memory is kept active during Suspend mode or the memory is transferred to the internal hard drive during Hiber- nation (Save-to-Disk) mode.

■When PC Cards or external devices are in use, Save-to-Disk mode cannot return to the exact state prior to suspension, because all of the peripheral devices will be re-initialized when the system restarts.

■The main advantage of using the Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) function is that power is not required to maintain your data. This is particularly important if you will be leaving your LifeBook note- book in a suspended state for a prolonged period of time. The drawback of using Hibernation (Save-to- Disk) mode is that it lengthens the power down and power up sequences and resets peripheral devices.

DISPLAY TIMEOUT

The Video Timeout is one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the display if there is no keyboard or pointer activity for the user selected timeout period. Any keyboard or pointer activity will cause the display to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume/ Power On button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows and BIOS setup utility. (See BIOS Setup Utility on page 27 for more information)

HARD DISK TIMEOUT

The Hard Disk Timeout is another one of the power management parameters. This feature saves power by turning off the hard drive if there is no hard drive activity for the user selected timeout period. Any attempt to access the hard drive will cause it to restart automatically. This feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume/Power On button and can be enabled and disabled in Windows and BIOS setup utility. (See BIOS Setup Utility on page 27 for more information)

WINDOWS POWER MANAGEMENT

The Power Management icon located in the Windows Control Panel allows you to configure some of the power management settings. For example, you can use the Power Management to set the timeout values for turning off the display and hard disks whether you are running the LifeBook notebook on battery power or one of the adapters. (See Pre-Installed Software on page 93 for more information) The settings may also be changed in the BIOS. (See BIOS Setup Utility on page 27 for more infor- mation)

RESTARTING THE SYSTEM

If your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure.

1.Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down.

2.Select the Restart option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box.

3.Click OK to restart your LifeBook notebook. Your notebook will shut down and then reboot.

P O I N T

Turning off your LifeBook notebook without exiting Windows or turning on your notebook within 10 sec- onds of the notebook being shut off may cause an error when you start the next time.

POWER OFF

Before turning off the power by choosing Shut Down from Windows, check that the Hard Drive, media player drive, PC Card and Floppy Disk Drive Access indicators are all Off. (See figure 2-8 on page 13) If you turn off the power while accessing a disk or PC Card there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your LifeBook notebook shuts down without error, use the Windows shut down proce- dure.

C A U T I O N

Never turn your LifeBook notebook off while an application is running. Be sure to close all files, exit all applications, and shut down your operating system prior to turning off the power with the power switch. If files are open when you turn the power off, you will lose any changes that have not been saved, and may cause disk errors.

Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows, allows your LifeBook notebook to complete its operations and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:

1.Click the Start button, and then click Shut Down.

2.Select the Shut Down option from within the Windows Shut Down dialog box.

3.Click OK to shutdown your LifeBook notebook.

If you are going to store your LifeBook notebook for a month or more see Care and Maintenance Section.
