About power management
The Reader has a power management feature to avoid
unnecessary battery consumption. At purchase, power
management is activated. Power management
operates as follows:
 After 60 minutes of inactivity, the Reader enters
sleep mode automatically while the battery power is
consumed slightly.
 After 5 days of inactivity, the Reader automatically
shuts down and stops consuming the battery power.
 If the battery power is at a low level, the Reader will shut down
after 60 minutes of inactivity.
Hints
 You can activate/deactivate power management from “Power
Management” in the “Settings” menu ( page 154 ).
 In addition to power management feature, you can save the
battery power using “Wireless Standby” ( page 35 , 155 ).
Notes
 The Reader does not enter sleep mode after 60 minutes of
inactivity even if “Power Management” is set to “On,” when:
– connected to the computer using the supplied USB cable
– connected to an AC outlet
– playing audio files or a slideshow
 The Reader does not wake up from sleep mode when
receiving periodicals by auto delivery ( page 40 ). Therefore, if
other operations are not performed for 5 days, the Reader will
automatically shut down by power management.
