Blinking LED in Suspend Mode:
While in Suspend mode, the LED light on the front panel of your computer will
flash. Suspend mode is entered by pressing the Override Power Button, pushing the

Poly-fuse Over Current Protection:
The poly-fuse protects the system from dangerous voltages that the system might be
exposed to via the keyboard or USB connector. In case of such exposure, the
poly-fuse will immediately be disconnected from the circuit, just like a normal fuse.
After being disconnected for a certain period of time, the poly-fuse will return to its
normal state. Then the keyboard or USB connector can function properly again.
Unlike conventional fuses, the poly-fuse does not have to be replaced, relieving the
user wasted time and inconvenience.
