nate mode for up to a week on a fully charged battery. You should consider these factors when deciding which mode to use.

The Hibernate mode, since it does not consume any power, can also be a useful way to save you time in getting started on your work. If you like to work with a number of programs open on a regular basis, you can use the hibernate mode to save the active session with those programs already opened. Rather than wait for the system to shut down each program and then manually reloading each program the next time you are ready to work, you can suspend and be ready to work once the session has been resumed. Keep in mind, it is still a good idea to shut down and restart your system over a few uses, just to refresh the system or to allow your virus software to perform a complete scan of your system, if you have enabled such an option.

Suspending to file requires a special file set up for that purpose. This file has already been pre-installed on your WinBook notebook. The pre-installed file is large enough to accommodate most system memory requirements.

Safety & Operation

The WinBook notebook does not have a handle or a rough surface for a sure grip, so use a carrying case when traveling. At times, you may want to put both the case and the WinBook notebook within a larger briefcase to conceal the system and reduce the risk of theft. Do not use this product in an unstable location. Serious damage could result if the system should fall. When using the AC adapter, be certain that the cord is not placed where someone might trip over it (since this might cause your computer to fall.) Avoid rough handling of your WinBook notebook. Jolts to the system can damage components or result in data loss. Transport your WinBook notebook in a case or bag that provides adequate cushioning and a secure position. Never check your WinBook notebook in as luggage

If your WinBook notebook

is unable to Hibernate, which suspends to disk,

(for example if your Save-to-File file is too small or damaged), it will suspend to RAM (Standby). When the unit is suspended to RAM, there will be a slow trickle of power and the battery could drain completely and data could be lost. When the unit is in Standby, the power manage- ment system cannot gauge battery charge levels. Since the Standby mode uses a trickle of battery power to maintain the information in RAM, the battery will slowly discharge in this mode. As a result, it is possible, if the unit remains in Standby until the battery is completely discharged, for the information in RAM to be lost. If you will be suspending the system for

a long period, you should use the Hibernate method.
