Using Sleep Mode

In Sleep mode, all unnecessary devices of your VAIO computer are turned off, though some
devices stay turned on to retain the computer's state including data you are working on.
Sleep mode is useful when you take a short rest, for example.
The power indicator light blinks in orange slowly while your VAIO computer is in this mode.
When the computer is running on battery power and a certain time has passed after the
computer enters Sleep mode, the computer will enter Hibernate mode at the default setting.
To activate Sleep mode
1. Click (arrow) next to the Shut down button, and Sleep.
