Differences between the suspend and hibernation functions
The computer should be set for suspend or hibernation (
see the above proce-
dure).
Press the sleep switch; at the "beep*" sound, release your finger.
(After releasing your finger from the
sleep switch, do not touch the sleep
switch or the power switch while the
computer is in the suspend or hiberna-
tion modes.)
At the "beep*" sound, release your finger from the sleep switch. If you con-
tinue 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 previ-
ously 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
switch 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 be used instead of the suspend mode.
[Hibernation] is factory set.
