Setting the Suspend or Hibernation Function
If you want to immediately start up and continue an application after shutting down your
computer, you can do so by using the suspend or hibernation function.

Differences between the suspend function and hibernation function
The computer should be set for suspend or hibernation ( see the above procedure).
Press the sleep switch; at the "beep*" sound, release your finger.
(After releasing your finger from the
sleep switch, while the computer is in
the suspend or hibernation mode, do not
touch the sleep switch or the power
switch.)
At the "beep*" sound, release your finger from the sleep switch. If you continue
to press down on the switch and hold it for more than four seconds, the "beep*"
sound will come out again and the power will go off. Data not previously saved
will be lost.
Slide the power switch to power on. The power will not go on by pressing the
sleep switch.
Even when [Sleep Switch] is set to [No Action] with the Setup Utility, if the sleep
switch is pressed, a beep will sound and the power will go off if the button is
pressed for more than four seconds.
If the computer will not be operated for an extended period of time, it is recom-
mended that hibernation mode is used instead of suspend mode.
[Hibernation] is factory set.
* When the speaker function is disabled, e.g., by setting [Disable] for [Speaker] with the
Setup Utility ( page 34) or by the key combination Fn + F4 , there will be no beep
sound.
