SECTION 1
Caution about the standby mode
• Don’t turn the MAIN switch off during standby, or all data being processed will be lost.
• When the computer is powered from a fully-charged new battery, it can be kept on standby for
about 1 day.
• During standby, the computer consumes a small amount of power to keep data in the system
RAM. If power is supplied by the internal battery, pay attention to the remaining battery life. If the
battery goes dead during standby, all data being processed will be lost. If you know you will not
use the computer for a prolonged period of time, don’t put the computer into standby mode, but
save all data, shut down Windows and turn off the computer.
• When the computer resumes operation as a result of the reception of a incoming call, it will
display nothing on the screen. To turn on the display, touch the Flat Point (move the mouse). If
this does not turn on the display, press the @ key or any other key. If this operation does not still
restore the display, check whether the
icon is blinking on the status indicator LCD. If it is
blinking, the computer is still on standby. In this case press the SUS/RES switch to resume
operation.
• When power is supplied by the internal battery, the time for which your computer can be kept on
standby may be shortened, depending on the PC card installed.
• If you placed the computer into standby mode, using the Shut Down Windows dialog box or the
SUS/RES switch, opening the LCD display does not cause the computer to resume operation.
Hibernation
You need to modify settings from the Power Options under Advanced if you want the computer
to go into hibernation mode when you press the SUS/RES switch or close the LCD display.
Hibernation (Suspending operation)
There are two ways to put the computer into hibernation mode.
