Initiating Standby (fn+f5)
The fn+f5 hotkey initiates standby.
When standby is initiated, your work is saved in random access
memory (RAM), the screen clears, and power is conserved.
While the notebook is in standby, the power/standby lights blink.
■ To initiate standby, the notebook must be on. If the notebook
is in hibernation, you must restore from hibernation before
you can initiate standby.
■ To resume from standby or restore from hibernation, briefly
press the power button. You can also resume from standby by
pressing any key or by performing an action with the
TouchPad or an optional pointing device, such as an external
mouse.
For more information about using standby and hibernation, refer
to Chapter 2, “Power.”
Initiating QuickLock (fn+f6)
The fn+f6 hotkey initiates the QuickLock security feature.
QuickLock protects a Windows account by displaying a log on
window. To access the protected account from the log on window,
the Windows password for the protected account must be entered.
Before you can use QuickLock, you must set a Windows user
password or a Windows administrator password for the account
you want to protect. (A Windows user password protects a
Windows user account; a Windows administrator password
protects a Windows administrator account.)
To set password for a Windows account:
1. Select Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > User
Accounts.
2. Select the account.
