Getting Started
Turning off the computer
Standby mode
The Standby command places the computer into a power-saving
mode. Standby holds the current state of the computer in system
memory (RAM) so that, when you restart the computer, you can
continue working from where you left off.
Factors to consider when choosing Standby:
❖ While in Standby mode, the computer uses some main battery
power.
❖ The Standby command does not store unsaved information on
your hard disk. You should save your work before putting your
computer on Standby.
❖ Restarting from Standby takes less time and consumes less
main battery power than restarting from turning off the
computer or using Hibernation mode.
❖ 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 you power down using the Standby command and the main battery
discharges fully, your unsaved information will be lost. Be sure to
save your work first.
Closing the display panel
After you have turned off the computer, close the display panel to
keep dust and dirt out of the computer.
