ENERGY STAR
This Product has been certified by ENERGY STAR®
The Regulation of ENERGY STAR®: ENERGY STAR®Requirements
for Computer Version 5.2.
The Test Standard of ENERGY STAR®: IEC/EN 62301, ENERGY
STAR®Program Requirements for Computer Version
ENERGY STAR®Compliance:
Power Management features (Basic)
Using power-saving states
The system provides the two power-saving states: Sleep and
Hibernation.
When Sleep is initiated, the power lights blink and the screen clears.
Your working task is saved to memory. Exiting Sleep is faster than
exiting Hibernation. If the system is in the Sleep state for an extra
period or if the battery reaches a critical battery level while in the
Sleep state, the system initiates Hibernation.
When Hibernation is initiated, your work is saved to a hibernation file
on the hard drive and the system turns off.

Embedded Controller AEC-6625
vii
Initiating and exiting Sleep
The system set the Sleep mode after 30 minutes of inactivity when
running on external power. You can change to none Sleep mode if the
system needs to be active at all time. The default power management
settings have been selected for compliance with ENERGY STAR®,
and are recommended by the ENERGY STAR®program for optimal
energy savings.
Using power plans
You can choose your own power plan which is a collection of system
settings that manages how the system uses power. Power plans can
help you conserve power or maximize performance.
