Getting Started 75 Turning off the computer NOTE After your computer sleeps for an extended period of time, the Windows® operating system may save any open documents and programs to your hard disk, and then shuts down the computer. Factors to consider when choosing Sleep: ❖ While in Sleep mode, the computer uses some main battery power. ❖ Because the state of the system is stored to memory, you will lose data if the main battery discharges while the computer is in Sleep mode. ❖ Restarting from Sleep takes less time and consumes less main battery power than restarting after turning off the computer using the Hibernation or Shut Down commands. ❖ When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode in which you left it, including all open programs and files you were using. ❖ If the battery charge becomes critically low, the computer will try to enter Hibernation mode. If you power down using the Sleep command and the main battery discharges fully, your unsaved information will be lost. Be sure to save your work first. For information on using Sleep, see "Using and configuring Sleep mode" on page 80. Using the Shut Down command The Shut Down command completely shuts down the computer without saving your work or the current state of the computer. This command closes all open programs, shuts down the operating system, and then turns off your computer.
