needle or a straightened paper clip into the emergency-reset hole. To locate the emergency-reset hole, see

Sleep and hibernation problems
• Problem : The computer enters sleep mode unexpectedly.
Solution : If the microprocessor overheats, the computer automatically enters sleep mode to allow the
computer to cool and to protect the microprocessor and other internal components. Check the settings
for sleep mode.
• Problem : The computer enters sleep mode immediately after the power-on self-test.
Solution : Ensure that:
– The battery is charged.
– The operating temperature is within the acceptable range. See “Operating environment” on page 12.
If the problem persists, have the computer serviced.
• Problem : A critical low-battery error occurs, and the computer immediately turns off.
Solution : The battery power is getting low. Plug the ac power adapter into an electrical outlet and then
into the computer. Alternatively, replace the battery with a charged one.
• Problem : The computer display remains blank after you press Fn to resume from sleep mode.
Solution : Check whether an external monitor was disconnected or turned off while the computer was in
sleep mode. If you disconnected or turned off the external monitor, connect it or turn it on before resuming
the computer from sleep mode. When resuming the computer from sleep mode without attaching the
external monitor or turning it on, and the computer display remains blank, press the display-mode
switching key to bring up the computer display.
• Problem : The computer does not resume from sleep mode, or the system status indicator blinks slowly
and the computer does not work.
Solution : If the system does not resume from sleep mode, it might have entered sleep or hibernation
mode automatically because the battery is depleted. Check the system status indicator.
– If the system status indicator blinks slowly, your computer is in sleep mode. Connect the ac power
adapter to the computer; then press Fn.
