Resuming Operation
Suspend/Hibernation Functions
If the security indicator ( ) is displayed, your password has been set.
After the display returns, the computer needs a short period of time to reinitialize.
This takes about 15 seconds. Do not shut down or restart Windows, or use the
suspend or hibernation functions again during this time, as this may subse-
quently cause Windows to operate abnormally.
Do not install or remove peripherals while your computer is in the suspend or
hibernation mode; abnormal operation may result.
When operation resumes, serial devices such as a mouse, modem or PC Cards
may not function properly. In such cases, you will need to restart your com-
puter or reinitialize the individual devices.
Avoid the following until the computer is completely turned off when powering
down using the suspend or hibernation functions, or resuming operation by
using the power switch from the suspend or hibernation.
• Touch the keyboard (excluding password input), touch pad, touchscreen, ex-
ternal mouse, or power switch.
• Connect the AC adapter.
• Close the display.
