“User Define”. When the system enters the power saving time set in
this field, the CPU and onboard peripherals will be shut off.

This is selectable only when the Power Management field is set to
User Define. When the system enters the HDD Power Down mode
according to the power saving time selected, the hard disk drive will
be powered down while all other devices remain active.

Delay 4 Sec.
Regardless of whether the Power Management func-
tion is enabled or disabled, if the power button is
pushed and released in less than 4 sec, the system
enters the Suspend mode. The purpose of this func-
tion is to prevent the system from powering off in
case you accidentally “hit” or pushed the power but-
ton. Push and release again in less than 4 sec to
restore. Pushing the power button for more than 4
seconds will power off the system.
Instant-Off
Pressing and then releasing the power button at
once will immediately power off your system.
