Note
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.
Restarting Your VAIO Computer
After changing the settings or installing an app on your VAIO computer, you may be required to restart the
computer.
1. Save your data and close all running apps.
2. Open the charms and select the
Settings charm. (See Opening the Charms to open the charms.)
3. Select Power and Restart.
Your VAIO computer will restart.
Using Sleep Mode
In Sleep mode, you can step away from your VAIO computer while retaining the computer’s state including
data you are working on.
To activate Sleep mode
1. Open the charms and select the Settings charm. (See Opening the Charms to open the charms.)
2. Select Power and Sleep.
If your VAIO computer is equipped with the power indicator, it turns off when the computer enters Sleep
mode (with the default setting).
To return to Normal mode
1. Press the (Power) button.
Note
If you press and hold down the (Power) button for more than 4 or 10 seconds, your VAIO computer will
turn off automatically. Doing this will erase all unsaved data.
By default, your VAIO computer automatically enters Hibernate mode when the battery pack is running out
of power. However, depending on the operating conditions, the computer may fail to enter Hibernate mode.
If this occurs and the battery pack is running out of power, the computer will be turned off, resulting in loss of
unsaved data.
