In this mode the PC consumes very little power and can be switched on with the power button.
– flashing green/orange:
The indicator only flashes on systems which support the ACPI function (Advanced

power button, the PC returns to the state it was in before the energy-saving mode.
CAUTION
In an energy-saving mode the PC must not be switched off with the main power switch (if present)
or disconnected from the mains, as this may result in data loss.
5 ON/OFF switch

functions of the ON/OFF switch in the Control Panel (Power management).
