Suspending and resuming operation
To conserve battery power when you do not want to turn off the
computer or when you need to install a charged battery pack, put the
computer into Sleep mode. (You can suspend operation without
closing any programs or Windows.)
When you suspend operation:
■
Programs that are running stop (but do not close).
■
Active data is saved.
■
The system enters one of the following low-power modes:
• Sleep (Suspend-to-RAM) mode – The Status LED light is
breathing green. Active data is saved in RAM and most other
components are turned off.
Although the computer uses very little power when in Sleep
mode, eventually the battery’s power does run out. If you do
not plan to use the computer for an extended period of time,
turn the computer off or put it in Hibernation mode instead of
Sleep mode.
• Hibernation mode – Active data is saved on the SSD and
power usage is reduced to the same level as when the
computer is turned off. In Hibernation mode, there is no
danger of losing data if battery power is lost.
Notes:
If you have set your computer to turn power off (in the Power Options
utility in Windows Control Panel), you cannot suspend operation. To
change power settings, see “Selecting Power (On/Off)/Backlight(On/
Off)/Sleep/ Resume button options” on page 53.
In the default configuration, the P3 key puts the computer in Sleep
mode and the Power button shuts down the computer. To change
these settings, see “Programming hot keys to perform pre-defined
functions” on page 63.
For more information, see
“Checking battery power
status” on page 50.
