Power Management

Your notebook offers automatic and modifiable power saving functions that you can use

to maximise battery life and reduce overall operating costs. The power saving modes are

known as sleep mode and hibernate mode.

Sleep Mode

When in sleep mode, the contents of the RAM of your notebook are preserved while

practically all other components of your notebook are shut down, reducing your power

consumption to a minimum. By pressing any key on the keypad, you can bring your

notebook back to the fully operational state. You will restart in precisely the same state in

which you were working prior to the interruption. The computer takes less time to go into

and come out of sleep mode, but uses more power than hibernate mode.

Hibernate Mode

The hibernate mode is an alternative to a complete shutdown of the notebook. In this

mode all data from RAM (system and graphic data) is copied to the hard disk as a file. As

soon as the data has been safely saved, the notebook powers down. When the notebook is

switched on again, this file is written back to RAM by the BIOS. In a few moments the

notebook is in the exact state as when it was last used. If while working on a document the

notebook is closed (assuming the correct ACPI setting), the notebook saves the data in

RAM for you automatically. You will restart in precisely the same state in which you were

working prior to the interruption. The computer uses no power while it is in hibernate

mode, but it takes a little longer for the computer to go into and come out of hibernation

compared to sleep mode.
