the system. For more information, refer to “

CAUTION: To avoid a complete battery discharge, do not leave the
computer in standby for extended periods. Connect the computer to an
external power source.
Standby reduces power to system components that are not in use.
When standby is initiated, your work is stored in random access
memory (RAM), and then the screen is cleared. When the
computer is in standby, the power lights blink. When you resume
from standby, your work returns to the screen where you left off.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of information loss, save your information
before initiating standby.
