POINT
Disabling the Suspend/Resume function
prevents it from being used to put your
notebook in Standby or Save-to-Disk
mode. The resume function of the but-
ton cannot be disabled. (See the Power
Menu of the BIOS setup utility, pages
43-44, for more information.)

Indicator panel above the keyboard of your
notebook. (Figure 3-11.) Push the Power but-
ton, when your notebook is active but no Access
indicators are on and release the button (imme-
diately). You will hear two short beeps and then
your system will enter Suspend mode.
If your notebook is suspended, pushing the
Power button will return your notebook to
active operation at the point where it went into
suspension. You can tell whether or not your
system is in Suspend mode by looking at the
Power indicator. (See page 20.) If it is visible
and not flashing, your notebook is fully opera-
tional. If it is visible and flashing, your note-
book is in Suspend mode. If it is not visible, the
power is Off or your notebook is in Save-to-
Disk mode. (See page 37.) When you receive
your LifeBook C Series it will be set to the
default in BIOS, which is Suspend mode.
CAUTION
The Standby or Save-to-Disk mode
should not be used with certain PC Cards.
Check your PC Card documentation for
more information.
POINT
If your notebook is active when you
enter the Standby or Save-to-Disk mode,
changes to open files are not lost. The
files are left open and memory is kept
active during Standby mode or the
memory is transferred to the internal
hard drive during Save-to-Disk mode.
CAUTION
If you are running your notebook on
battery power, be aware that the battery
continues to discharge while your note-
book is in Suspend mode, though not as
fast as when fully operational. With a
fully charged internal Lithium ion battery
the suspend mode will maintain your
status for 24 hours or more.
