Entering Sleep Mode

The sleep mode function reduces the amount of power consumed by the machine by disabling power ow to the
control panel. If no operations will be performed on the machine for a while, such as during a lunch break, you can
save power simply by pressing on the control panel. You can also use the Auto Sleep Time setting to
automatically put the machine into sleep mode if it remains idle for a specied length of time.

When the machine enters sleep mode, lights up yellow green.
