Hibernation Mode
In Hibernation mode, all power shuts off (the computer does
not consume any power). The computer saves all system
information onto the hard disk before it enters Hibernation
mode. Once you turn on the power, the computer restores
this information and resumes where you left off upon
leaving Hibernation mode.
Before the computer can enter Hibernation mode, the
Hibernation file created by Sleep Manager must be present
and valid. See “Sleep Manager” on page 73.
Then, there are four ways to enter Hibernation mode:
T Pressing the Hibernation hotkey Fn-F4
T If the waiting time specified by the Hibernation Timeout
value elapses without any system activity
Warning: Unstored data is lost when you turn off the
computer power in Standby mode or when the
battery is drained.
