To avoid losing unsaved data, follow these steps to shut down your VAIO computer.

3. Open the charms, and then select the Settings charm. (See Opening the Charms to open the
charms.)
4. Select Power and Shut down.
After a short time, your VAIO computer automatically turns off. If the computer is equipped with the power
indicator, the green power indicator light turns off.

An improper shutdown may cause loss of unsaved data or cause your VAIO computer to malfunction.
To disconnect your VAIO computer completely from an AC power source, turn off the computer, and then
unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
Hint
If you select Shut down while holding down the Shift key in step 4, you can place your VAIO computer
into the minimum power consumption state (ACPI S5 mode). In this case, the fast boot function is
temporarily disabled on the next start-up.
