Learning the Basics
Using Turn Off
Factors to consider when choosing Standby:
❖
While in Standby mode, the computer uses some battery
power. If your computer is left in Standby mode for an
extended period, your computer could lose data.
❖
When starting up again, this choice uses less time and
battery power than does Turn Off or Hibernation.
❖
On restarting, the computer returns to the state in which
you left it, and opens all the programs and files you were
using.
NOTE: If you power down using the Standby command and the
battery discharges fully, your information will be lost. Be sure to
save your work often.
