Smart Power Switch

Provides an automatic feature that prevents you from accidentally powering off the NEC
Versa, and losing your data while your system is in Suspend mode. The smart power switch
senses that the system is in Suspend mode and prevents you from directly powering off the
system when you press the power switch.
To power off the system from Suspend mode,
1. Press the Suspend/Resume button to make the system active.
2. Press the power button to turn off the system.
