Putting your computer into sleep state or shutting it down
When you finish working with your computer, you can put it into sleep state or shut it down.
Putting your computer into sleep state
If you will be away from your computer for only a short time, put the computer into sleep state. When the computer is in sleep state, you can quickly wake it to resume use, and bypass the startup process.
To put the computer into sleep state, click and select Sleep from the Start menu.
Note: Wait until the power indicator light starts blinking (indicating that the computer is
in sleep state) before you move your computer. Moving your computer while the hard disk is spinning can damage the hard disk, causing loss of data.
To wake the computer, do one of the following.
• Press the power button.
• Press any key on the keyboard.
Shutting down your computer
If you are not going to use your computer for a day or two, shut it down. To shut down your computer, click and select Shut down from the Start

Checking battery status
You can determine the percentage of battery power remaining by checking the battery icon in the notification area.
Note: As each computer user has different habits and needs, it is difficult to predict how
long a battery charge will last. There are two main factors:
• The amount of energy stored in the battery when you commence work.
• The way you use your computer: for example, how often you access the hard disk drive and how bright you make the computer display.
Charging the battery
If the battery power is low, you need to charge the battery.
You need to charge the battery in any of the following situations:
• If the battery status indicator starts blinking
• If the battery has not been used for a long time
Note:
To increase the life of the battery pack, the computer does not start recharging the
battery immediately after it drops from fully charged.
Charge the battery at a temperature between 50 °F and 86 °F (10 °C-30 °C).
Full charge or discharge is not required.
