Power and Power-Up Modes

If you enter the password incorrectly three consecutive times, the computer shuts down. You must turn on the computer again and re-enter the password.

Power-up modes

The computer has three power-up modes:

■Hibernation (saves data in memory to the hard disk)

■Standby (Power remains on, saving data in RAM, but the CPU and all other devices enter sleep mode.)

■Boot (does not save data in memory)

Refer also to the section Turning off the power in Chapter 3, Getting Started.

Panel power off/on

In AC mode, this feature turns power to the computer off when the display panel is closed and turns it back on when the panel is opened.

In Battery mode, the Hibernation feature turns power to the computer off when the display panel is closed and cannot turn it back on when the panel is opened. The Standby feature turns power to the computer off when the display panel is closed and turns it back on when the panel is opened.

If the panel power off function is enabled and you use Shut down Windows, do not close the display until the shut down function is completed.

System automatic Standby/Hibernation

This feature automatically turns off the system in Standby or Hibernation mode if the computer is not used for a set duration.

Refer to Special Features, in Chapter 1, Introduction for an explanation of how to set the duration.
