Using Sleep Mode

In Sleep mode, all unnecessary devices of your VAIO computer are turned off, though some

devices stay on to retain the computer’s state including data you are working on. Sleep

mode is useful when you take a short rest, for example.

With the default Sleep mode settings, Rapid Wake is enabled and the computer’s state is

saved to the built-in storage device.

To activate Sleep mode

1. Open the charms

and select the

Settings charm.

2. Select

Power and Sleep.

The power indicator light turns off when your VAIO computer enters Sleep mode.

Hint

By default, your VAIO computer enters Sleep mode automatically after about 30

minutes of inactivity while running on AC power.

The operations below also place your VAIO computer into Sleep mode.

Press the (Power) button (with the default setting).

Note that if you press and hold down the (Power) button for more than four

seconds, your VAIO computer will turn off automatically. Doing this will erase all

unsaved data.

Press the

Sleep button on the keyboard.

To return to Normal mode

1. Press the (Power) button.

Note

Before moving your VAIO computer, make sure that the power indicator light is off to

avoid impact or vibration to the running hard disk drive.

Hint

If you press and hold down the (Power) button for more than four seconds, your VAIO

computer will turn off automatically. Doing this will erase all unsaved data.

The operations below also restore your VAIO computer from Sleep mode to Normal

mode.

Click the mouse button. (Mouse supplied models)

Move the mouse. (Wireless mouse supplied models)

We recommend that you turn off the power switch of the wireless mouse before

placing your VAIO computer into Sleep mode. This will prevent the computer from

returning to Normal mode when the mouse is unintentionally moved during Sleep

mode.
