Changing the Auto Sleep Time Value
Auto Sleep Time is a function that automatically puts the machine into the sleep mode if it remains idle for a
specied length of time. We recommend using the factory default settings ( <Timer Settings>(P. 380) ) to
reduce power usage. If you want to change the amount of time that elapses before the machine enters the auto
sleep mode, perform the procedure below.
