Using power-management features Operation
Enabling Suspend mode
In Suspend mode all the active data (active programs and files) is saved to the
hard disk and the notebook is switched off. The active data can only be saved if
sufficient space is available on the hard disk (at least the main memory size +
2 Mbytes).
If you are running the operating system OS/2 or Windows NT, you have to set up
an additional FAT partition on the hard disk (see the manuals supplied with the
operating system in question). The FAT partition must be at least the size of 16
Mbyte.
You cannot use Suspend mode if the notebook is connected to a docking unit or if
the space available on the hard disk is not sufficient.
