Power-up modes
The computer has three power-up modes:
■ Hibernation (saves data in memory to the hard disk)
■ Standby (Power remains on, saving data in RAM, but the CPU and all
other devices enter sleep mode.)
■ Boot (does not save data in memory)
The battery pack is a lithium ion battery, which can explode if not properly
replaced, used, handled or disposed of. Dispose of the battery as required
by local ordinances or regulations. Use only batteries recommended by
TOSHIBA as replacements.
