Customizing Your VAIO Computer
Using the Power Saving Modes
You can take advantage of the power management settings to conserve battery life. In addition to the normal operating mode,
your computer has two distinct power saving modes: Sleep and Hibernate. When using battery power, you should be aware
that the computer will automatically enter Hibernate mode if the remaining battery life becomes short, regardless of the power
management setting you select.
!
If the battery charge level falls below 10%, you should either connect the AC adapter to recharge the battery pack or shut down your computer and
install a fully charged battery pack.
Using Normal Mode
This is the normal state of the computer when it is in use. The green power indicator light is lit in this mode.
Using Sleep Mode
Sleep mode turns off the LCD screen and places the storage device(s) and the CPU into a low power consumption mode.
The orange power indicator light blinks slowly in this mode.
!
If you do not intend to use your computer for a long period of time while it is disconnected from AC power, place the computer into Hibernate mode or
turn it off.
To activate Sleep mode
Click Start, the arrow next to the Lock button, and Sleep.
