Turning off the device
TECHNICAL NOTE: Before using the shut down option to turn off
your device, backup your data.
If you change your mind and decide to continue working after all,
wait a few seconds before turning the device on again.
If you do not intend to use your device for a long period of time, turn
off the device, disconnect the power plug from the plug socket, and
store your device in a dry dust-free location.
❖Letting the screen time-out or enter into Sleep mode allows the
device to conserve power. When turning on the device again,
the system automatically returns to the last screen viewed.
To change the screen time-out setting, see “Display settings”
on page 67.
