■You can remove the battery while the system is in Standby or Hibernate modes in order to install a charged battery. To prevent losing unsaved data, wait until system operation has suspended before you remove the battery. Note that after you remove the battery, you have approximately five minutes to replace it with a new battery or to plug in a power supply before the bridge battery is depleted.

■Your system may be configured to suspend operation automatically after a period of inactivity.

■Your system may be configured to enter Hibernate mode automatically after a period of time in Standby mode.

■The system uses a small amount of battery power when in Standby mode. Eventually, the battery will become fully discharged.

If you will not be using the system for an extended period, shut down the system rather than using Standby mode.

■If the battery charge drops to a Low-Battery Warning level while the system is running, the system will beep periodically. If this occurs, suspend system operation, shut down the system, or attach an external power source, such as the AC adapter, to the Tablet PC.

■If the battery charge drops to a Critically Low level while the system is running, the system is forced into a Standby or Hibernate mode. If this occurs, you must either install a charged battery, or connect an external power source such as the AC adapter before you can resume system operation. (If the charge drops to a Crit- ically Low level while the system is in Standby mode, the system stays in that mode until power is restored or totally dissipated.)

■Suspending system operation interrupts data commu- nications; therefore, some programs may block the system from suspending to prevent an interruption.

■The suspend action of the Suspend/Resume button may be disabled to prevent accidental interruption. If this is the case, pressing the Suspend/Resume button will not suspend system operation as described here. (In this case, standby mode can only be achieved using the system software). Contact your local help desk or reseller if your system configuration is not suitable.

■If your system is equipped with a PC Card that allows you to connect to a wired or wireless network, you may be logged off the network after a period of inactivity while system operation is suspended. Contact your network administrator or help desk, or call Fujitsu Service and Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838- 5487) for details on your network log-off parameters.

RESUMING SYSTEM OPERATION

To resume operation from either Standby or Hibernate modes, press the Suspend/Resume button.

■From Standby mode

Status lights indicate that the system state is changing. It may take up to a minute before the system returns to the On state and system operation resumes. Note that the display turns on shortly before the pen becomes active due to the power-up sequences observed by the system.

■From Hibernate mode

Active data is read from the hard disk drive, and the system returns to the On state after a short time.

Note that power to several system components must be restored before system operation resumes. Allow sufficient time for system operation to resume before attempting to use the system. If your system uses Hibernate mode, it will take longer to resume operation as compared to using Standby mode. Time is needed to read data from the hard disk drive.

Use the system as you normally would once system oper- ation resumes.

All programs resume at the point where execution stopped when system operation was suspended.

USING THE SHOCK SENSOR UTILITY

The Shock Sensor Utility is a feature that helps to The Shock Sensor Utility is designed to decrease the risk of damage to the computer's hard disk drive (HDD) in the event of excessive impact or vibration. The Shock Sensor Utility also has the ability to improve the security of the computer by automatically locking the computer with a password when it is carried. Note that the HDD protec- tion and computer locking features are mutually exclu- sive; both cannot be selected at the same time.

■Shock Sensor Utility does not completely protect the HDD and does not provide absolute security for the computer.

■The computer may stop temporarily while the HDD head is retracted. To restart the computer, keep the system horizontal.

1.Double-click the Shock Sensor Utility icon in the Notification Area at the bottom-right of the screen. The [Shock Sensor Utility] window appears.

2.Click the [Setting] button. The [Shock Sensor Utility Settings] window appears.
