When entering the standby or hibernation mode

Standby mode: until the power indicator blinks green
Hibernation mode: until the power indicator goes off
Avoid the following:
Using the keyboard, touch pad, touchscreen, tablet buttons, or power switch.
Using external mouse or other peripheral devices.
Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
Closing or opening the display.
It may take one or two minutes to enter standby or hibernation mode.

In standby or hibernation mode

Do not insert or remove peripherals; abnormal operatio n may result.
In standby mode, power is consumed. If PC Cards are inserted, more power is
consumed. When all power has been consumed, all data saved at standby is lo st since it
is retained in memory. We therefore recommend plugging in the AC adaptor when using
the standby function.
