Turning off the computer
If the battery charge becomes critically low, the computer will
try to enter Hibernation mode.
If you power down using the Sleep command and the main battery
discharges fully, your unsaved information will be lost. Be sure to
save your work first.
For information on using Sleep, see “Using and configuring Sleep
mode” on page 96.
