CAUTION
Suspend/Hibernation Functions
Resuming Operation
If the security indicator (
) is displayed, your password has been set.
After the display returns, the computer needs a short period of time to reinitialize.
This takes about 15 seconds. Do not shut down or restart Windows, or use the
suspend or hibernation functions again during this time, as this may subse-
quently cause Windows to operate abnormally.
Do not install or remove peripherals while your computer is in the suspend or
hibernation mode; abnormal operation may result.
When operation resumes, serial devices such as a mouse or PC Cards may not
function properly. In such cases, you will need to restart your computer or
reinitialize the individual devices.
Push the sleep switch
or
Slide the power switch
With the method below, you can shut down the computer by using the suspend

NOTE
CAUTION
At the "beep*" sound, release your finger from the sleep switch. If you continue
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 previously 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 button 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.
