Introduction

This feature lets you configure the computer in 
order to save battery power. This can be 
specified in the Power Options. 

This feature automatically turns power to the 
computer off when the display panel is closed, 
and turns it back on when the display panel is 
opened. This can be specified in the Power 
Options. 

When battery power is exhausted to the point that 
computer operation cannot be continued, the 
system automatically enters Hibernation Mode 
and shuts itself down. This can be specified in the 
Power Options. 

To protect against overheating, the processor 
has an internal temperature sensor so that, if the 
computer's internal temperature rises to a certain 
level, the cooling fan is turned on or the 
processing speed is lowered. This can be 
specified in the Power Options.

This feature uses the acceleration sensor built in 
the computer to detect vibration and shocks, and 
automatically moves the hard disk drive's read/
write head to a safe position in order to reduce 
the risk of damage that could be caused by head-
to-disk contact. Refer to the 

 section in Chapter 4, 

Operating Basics, for more details.

This feature lets you turn off the power without 
exiting from your software. The contents of main 
memory are saved to the hard disk so that when 
you next turn the power on again, you can 
continue working right where you left off. Refer to 
the 

 section in Chapter 3, 

Getting Started, for details.

If you have to interrupt your work, you can turn off 
the power without exiting from your software. 
Data is maintained in the computer’s main 
memory. When you turn on the power again, you 
can continue working right where you left off.
