Related service information To enter standby mode, press Fn+F4. Note: If you are using the ACPI operating system, you can change the action of Fn+F4. In certain circumstances, the computer goes into standby mode automatically: v If a "suspend time" has been set on the timer, and the user does not do any operation with the keyboard, the TrackPoint® , the hard disk, the parallel connector, or the diskette drive within that time. v If the battery indicator blinks orange, indicating that the battery power is low. (Alternatively, if Hibernate when battery becomes low has been selected in the "Power Management Properties" window, the computer goes into hibernation mode.) Note for the APM operating system: Even if you do not set the low-battery alarm, the charge indicator notifies you when the battery is low, and then the computer enters the power-saving mode automatically. This default low-battery behavior is independent of the operating system; so if you have set the low-battery alarm, the computer may not do what you specified. It chooses either your setting or the default setting, whichever is appropriate. If you are using the ACPI operating system, only the low-battery alarm is available. To cause the computer to return from standby mode and resume operation, do one of the following: v Press the Fn key. v Open the LCD cover. v Turn on the power switch. Also, in either of the following events, the computer automatically returns from standby mode and resumes operation: v The ring indicator (RI) is signaled by a serial device or a PC Card device. v The time set on the resume timer elapses. Note: The computer does not accept any input immediately after it enters standby mode. Wait a few seconds before taking any action to reenter operation mode. Hibernation mode In hibernation mode, the following occurs: v The system status, RAM, VRAM, and setup data are stored on the hard disk. v The system is powered off. Note: If the computer enters the hibernation mode while it is docked to the ThinkPad X6 Tablet UltraBase, do not undock it before resuming normal operation. If you do undock it and then try to resume normal operation, you will get an error message, and you will have to restart the system. To cause the computer to enter hibernation mode, do any of the following: v Press the Fn+F12 keys. v If you are using the APM operating system and have set the mode to Power switch mode [Hibernation], turn off the power switch.

To
enter
standby
mode,
press
Fn+F4.
Note:
If
you
are
using
the
ACPI
operating
system,
you
can
change
the
action
of
Fn+F4.
In
certain
circumstances,
the
computer
goes
into
standby
mode
automatically:
v
If
a
“suspend
time”
has
been
set
on
the
timer,
and
the
user
does
not
do
any
operation
with
the
keyboard,
the
TrackPoint
®
,
the
hard
disk,
the
parallel
connector,
or
the
diskette
drive
within
that
time.
v
If
the
battery
indicator
blinks
orange,
indicating
that
the
battery
power
is
low.
(Alternatively,
if
Hibernate
when
battery
becomes
low
has
been
selected
in
the
“Power
Management

window,
the
computer
goes
into
hibernation
mode.)
Note
for
the
APM
operating
system:
Even
if
you
do
not
set
the
low-battery
alarm,
the
charge
indicator
notifies
you
when
the
battery
is
low,
and
then
the
computer
enters
the
power-saving
mode
automatically.
This
default
low-battery
behavior
is
independent
of
the
operating
system;
so
if
you
have
set
the
low-battery
alarm,
the
computer
may
not
do
what
you
specified.
It
chooses
either
your
setting
or
the
default
setting,
whichever
is
appropriate.
If
you
are
using
the
ACPI
operating
system,
only
the
low-battery
alarm
is
available.
To

one
of
the
following:
v
Press
the
Fn
key.
v
Open
the
LCD
cover.
v
Turn
on
the
power
switch.
Also,
in
either
of
the
following
events,
the
computer
automatically
returns
from
standby
mode
and
resumes
operation:
v
The
ring
indicator
(RI)
is
signaled
by
a
serial
device
or
a
PC
Card
device.
v
The
time
set
on
the
resume
timer
elapses.
Note:
The
computer
does
not
accept
any
input
immediately
after
it
enters
standby
mode.
Wait
a
few
seconds
before
taking
any
action
to
reenter
operation
mode.
Hibernation
mode
In
hibernation
mode,
the
following
occurs:
v
The
system
status,
RAM,
VRAM,
and
setup
data
are
stored
on
the
hard
disk.
v
The
system
is
powered
off.
Note:
If
the
computer
enters
the
hibernation
mode
while
it
is
docked
to
the
ThinkPad
X6
Tablet
UltraBase,
do
not
undock
it
before
resuming
normal
operation.
