Power-up modes
The computer has three power-up modes:
■ Hibernation (saves data in memory to the hard disk)
■ Standby (Power remains on, saving data in RAM, but the CPU and all
other devices enter sleep mode.)
■ Boot (does not save data in memory)
Refer also to the section Turning off the power in Chapter 3, Getting
Started.
Panel power off/on
You can set up your computer so that power turns off automatically when
you close the display panel.
When you open the panel, power turns on in Standby or Hibernation
mode but not in boot mode.
If the panel power off function is enabled and you use Shut down
Windows, do not close the display until the shut down function is
completed.
System automatic Standby/ Hibernation
This feature automatically turns off the system in Standby or Hibernation
mode if the computer is not used for a set duration.
Refer to Special Features, in Chapter 1, Introduction for an explanation of
how to set the duration.
