USB Wakeup function This function restores the computer from Sleep Mode depending on the external devices connected to the USB ports.

| connected to a USB port, clicking the mouse |
| button or pressing the keyboard will wakeup the |
| computer. |
Heat dispersal *1 | To protect against overheating, the processor is |
| equipped with an internal temperature sensor |
| which activates a cooling fan or lowers the |
| processing speed if the computer's internal |
| temperature rises to a certain level. You are able |
| to select whether to control this temperature by |
| either turning on the fan first, then if necessary |
| lowering the processor speed, or by lowering the |
| processor speed first, then if necessary turning |
| on the fan. Both of these functions are controlled |
| through the Power Options. |
| When the processor's temperature falls within |
| normal range, the fan and the processor |
| operation will return to its standard speed. |
| If the processor's temperature reaches an |
| unacceptably high level with either setting, the |
| computer automatically shuts down to prevent |
| any damage. In this instance all unsaved data in |
| memory will be lost. |
