You can specify the Power Save Mode in the Profile item in TOSHIBA Power Saver.

You can specify the setting in the When I close the lid item of the Setup Actions tab in TOSHIBA Power Saver. When battery power is exhausted to the point that computer operation cannot be continued, the system automatically enters Hibernation and shuts down.
