Note: If you use an application that wakes your computer
when it is suspended (such as when a fax program receives an incoming fax), the computer will not go back into Suspend mode automatically, unless your PC is configured to use the Auto Suspend feature. For more information on Auto Suspend, see “Setting Auto Suspend in the BIOS” in the
guide.

•Suspend your computer to save power while you aren’t using it.
•Get support information.
•Set shortcuts to your favorite programs.
Note: If your keyboard is not working properly, see Chapter 2, “Troubleshooting,” in the Getting Help guide.
