Sleep Mode and turning the system off

Putting the system into Sleep Mode
Closing the system while it is turned on will suspend your game and put the system into Sleep Mode. Sleep Mode will reduce
power consumption while still using features such as StreetPass and SpotPass (see pages 2 and 3 for more information on
these features).
Depending on the software you are using, closing the system may not place it in Sleep Mode. (For example, when listening to
music with Nintendo 3DS Sound.)

To turn the system off, either press the POWER Button to display the Power menu and tap
Power Off, or press and hold the POWER Button until the power LED turns off.
