Putting the Computer to Sleep to Save Energy

Your computer is set to go to sleep after a period of inactivity. Sleep is a state in which your computer uses very little power. You can also put the computer to sleep whenever you want.

When the computer goes to sleep, it saves its state so that when you wake the computer, your programs, documents, and control panel settings are exactly as you left them. You use the Energy Saver control panel, part of the computer’s system software, to adjust sleep settings. For further energy savings, disconnect the computer from its power source or turn off the power strip when the computer is not in use.

To put your computer to sleep, you can

mtouch the power button on the computer

mselect a sleep mode in the Energy Settings portion of the Control Strip

mchoose Sleep from the Special menu

When the computer is in sleep, the power button light pulses.

You wake the computer by touching the power button on the computer or by pressing a key. With some Apple monitors, you can also use the monitor power button to put the computer to sleep and wake it.
