Initiate Standby (fn+f5)
The fn+f5 hotkey is set by default to initiate standby.
When standby is initiated, your work is saved in random access memory (RAM), the screen clears, and power is conserved. While the computer is in standby, the power lights blink.
■To initiate standby, the computer must be on. If the computer is in hibernation, you must restore from hibernation before you can initiate standby.
■To resume from standby or restore from hibernation, briefly press the power button.
For more information about using standby and hibernation, refer to Chapter 3, “Power.”
The function of the fn+f5 hotkey can be changed in the operating system. For example, you can set the fn+f5 hotkey to initiate hibernation instead of standby. In all Windows operating system windows, references to the sleep button apply to the fn+f5 hotkey. For information about changing the function of the fn+f5 hotkey, refer to the “Setting Other Power Preferences” section in Chapter 3, “Power.”
