The Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to- Disk) mode should not be used with cer- tain PC Cards. Check your PC Card docu- mentation for more information.

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

Turning off your LifeBook notebook with- out exiting Windows or turning on your notebook within 10 seconds of the note- book being shut off may cause an error when you start the next time.

POWER OFF

Before turning off the power, check that the hard drive/ optical drive access indicator is off. (See figure 2-3 on page 6) If you turn off the power while accessing a disk there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your notebook shuts down without error, use the Windows shut down

procedure.

Be sure to close all files, exit all applica- tions, and shut down your operating sys- tem prior to turning off the power. 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 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 shut down your notebook.
