Initiating Sleep and Hibernation

Microsoft® Windows has two power-saving states, Sleep and Hibernation.

●Sleep–The Sleep state is automatically initiated after a period of inactivity when running on battery power or on external power. Your work is saved to memory, allowing you to resume your work very quickly. You can also initiate Sleep manually. For more information, see Initiating and exiting Sleep on page 50.

●Hibernation–The Hibernation state is automatically initiated if the battery reaches a critical level. In the Hibernation state, your work is saved to a hibernation file and the computer powers down.

NOTE: If you want to initiate Hibernation manually, you must enable Hibernation using Power Options. For more information, see Enabling and exiting user-initiated Hibernation on page 51.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of possible audio and video degradation, loss of audio or video playback functionality, or loss of information, do not initiate Sleep while reading from or writing to a disc or an external media card.
