Off button session at turn-on. Off No-power/stopped state. Everything is shut down (battery charges if ac adapter is connected). Computer reboots at turn-on. If you plug in the ac adapter while the OmniBook is stopped, battery-charging components are activated, but the OmniBook stays in the same power state.

In addition, Advanced Power Management (APM) provides several automatic powersaving features that affect the power state. You can adjust settings in the System Configuration Utility to control features such as these: • If the OmniBook is running on battery power and there's no activity for a short period of time, it automatically stops by changing to the Suspend state. • If you leave the OmniBook stopped in the Suspend state for a long time without plugging in the ac adapter, it automatically saves power by changing to the Hibernate state. Your session is saved.

If possible, shut down Windows. 2.

Optional: When the OmniBook displays a list of configurations, press SPACEBAR to stop the 5-second time-out. Then press a number key and ENTER to select a particular configuration. If you do nothing, the OmniBook uses its default configuration. 20
