Power Management
Chapter 2 Operating on Battery Power 41
The following signals indicate that the computer is in
Standby mode:
The buzzer beeps
The Standby indicator lights
To leave Standby mode and return to normal mode:
Press any key
Move the active pointing device (internal or external, PS/
2 or serial)
Allow the Resume Timer to be matched
Open the display cover
Receive an incoming PC card modem event when the
Resume on Modem Ring is enabled
Hibernation mode
In Hibernation mode, all power shuts off (the computer does
not consume any power). The computer saves all system
information onto the hard disk before it enters Hibernation
mode. Once you turn on the power, the computer restores
this information and resumes where you left off.
Note: If the computer beeps but does not enter Standby
mode after pressing the Standby hot key, it means the
operating system will not allow the computer to enter the
power saving mode.
Warning: Unstored data is lost when you turn off the
computer power in Standby mode (by holding the
power switch for more than 4 seconds) or when the
battery is drained.
