In S3 (Suspend-to-RAM) you may lose unsaved data if the battery is removed and the
!
system is not connected to the mains adapter.
The power indicator either flashes (Suspend-to-RAM) or is not displayed (Hibernate) when
system operation is suspended, depending on how your system is configured. At this point,
programs that were running are stopped, active data is saved, and the system enters one
of two different low-power modes, or suspend modes, as explained in the following
paragraphs.
Refer to the "Resuming operation" section in this chapter to resume system operation. Also, note the
following with regard to suspending system operation:
●
Your system may be configured to suspend operation automatically after a period of inactivity.
●
If the battery charge drops to a critically low level while the system is running, the system is
forced into a pre-selected mode (Suspend-to-RAM or Hibernate). If this happens, you must
either install a charged battery, or connect an appropriate external power source such as the
mains adapter before you can resume system operation. If the battery charge drops to a
critically low level while the system is in Suspend-to-RAM mode, the system stays in Suspend-
to-RAM mode until power is restored or totally dissipated.
●
The suspend function of the On/Off button may be disabled to prevent accidental interruption. If
this is the case, pressing the On/Off button will not suspend system operation as described
here. (In this case, suspend mode can only be achieved using the system software.)
