POWER MANAGEMENT
Your LifeBook C Series has many features for
conserving power. Some power savings features
are automatic and have no user control, such
as those for the internal modem, while others
depend on the parameters you set to best suit
your operating conditions. Other power saving
features turn the display brightness down, limit
the use of high power devices, activate an
appropriate power savings profile, and put your
notebook in Suspend mode when not actually
performing an operation. As with all mobile,
battery-powered computers, there is a trade-off
between performance and power savings.
Internal power management for your notebook
may be controlled from settings made in the
BIOS setup utility, or from settings made in
your operating system.

Using the Suspend/Resume Features
When your notebook is active, the Power but-
ton,
(Figure 1-3 on page 5)
, can be used to man-
ually put your notebook into Suspend mode.
The Power button is located next to the Status
Indicator panel above the keyboard of your
notebook.
(Figure 3-13.)
Push the Power but-
ton, when your notebook is active but no
Access indicators are on and release the button
(immediately). 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 pages 22-25.)
If it is visi-
ble and not flashing, your notebook is fully
operational. If it is visible and flashing, your
notebook is in Suspend mode. If it is not visi-
ble, the power is Off or your notebook is in
Save-to-Disk mode.
(See page 40
.
)
When you
receive your LifeBook C Series it will be set to
the default, which is Suspend mode.
C A U T I O N
If you hold the Power button down for
four (4) seconds or more it will power
Off your notebook without putting it
into Standby mode or Save-to-Disk mode.
P O I N T
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 button
cannot be disabled.
(See the Power
Menu of the BIOS setup utility, pages
75-80, for more information.)
