Standby/Hibernation Functions
• When playing/recording audio files and displaying images (such as MPEG files).
• When using communications software or the network function.
• When using peripheral devices.
If these devices fail to work properly, restart the computer.
zAfter resuming from hibernation mode or standby mode, the computer may not work
properly, or may not be able to connect to the network.
When entering the standby or hibernation mode
Standby mode: until the power indicator blinks green
Hibernation mode: until the power indicator goes off
zAvoid the following:
• Touching the keyboard, touch pad, touchscreen, or power switch.
• Using external mouse or other peripheral devices.
• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
• Closing or opening the display.
zIt may take one or two minutes to enter standby or hibernation mode.
In standby or hibernation mode
zDo not insert or remove peripherals; abnormal operation may result.
zIn standby mode, power is consumed. If PC Cards are inserted, more of that power is
consumed. When all power has been consumed, all data saved at standby is lost since it
is retained in memory. We therefore recommend plugging in the AC adaptor when using
the standby function.
