Setting power options Using power-saving states The computer has two power-saving states enabled at the factory: Suspend and Hibernation. When Suspend is initiated, the power lights blink and the screen clears. Your work is saved to memory, letting you exit the Suspend state faster than exiting Hibernation. If the computer is in the Suspend state for an extended period or if the battery reaches a critical battery level while in the Suspend state, the computer initiates Hibernation. When Hibernation is initiated, your work is saved to a hibernation file on the hard drive and the computer turns off. CAUTION: To prevent possible audio and video degradation, loss of audio or video playback functionality, or loss of information, do not initiate Suspend or Hibernation while reading from or writing to a disc or an external media card. NOTE: You cannot initiate any type of networking connection or perform any computer functions while the computer is in the Suspend state or in Hibernation. Initiating and exiting Suspend The system is set at the factory to initiate Suspend after a period of inactivity when running on battery power or on external power. Power settings and timeouts can be changed by clicking the System menu icon at the far right of the top panel, and then clicking System Settings > Power icon. With the computer on, you can initiate Suspend in any of the following ways: ● Briefly press the power button. ● Close the display. NOTE: This method works only when the computer is running on battery power. ● Click the System menu icon at the far right of the top panel, and then click Suspend. To exit Suspend: ▲ Briefly press the power button. When the computer exits Suspend, the power lights turn on and your work returns to the screen where you stopped working. 34 Chapter 6 Managing power
