Standby Mode
Standby mode saves some computer power by
turning off a few of the unused devices and still
allows you to resume your work instantly. The
standby indicator lights up in Standby mode.
Press the Standby hot key (Fn+F4) to enter
Standby mode. The computer also enters
Standby mode if the STANDBY TIMEOUT parameter
in Setup is enabled and times out.
To resume from Standby mode, press any key or
touch the touchpad. The computer also
resumes from Standby if the RESUME ON MODEM
RING or RESUME ON ALARM options are enabled in
the System Setup and a modem ring or alarm
occurs.
Note: The computer acts on the key you press.
To prevent unintended results, press a non-
printing character such as Shift, Ctrl or Alt.
Refer to Chapter 3, Responding to Low Battery
Conditions section, for more ideas on how to
conserve power.
