When my MacBook Pro i7 runs out of battery, it powers off.

I can't seem to figure out why my new macbook pro turns off when it runs out of battery. Typically, when macs run out of battery, they go into sleep mode. However mine skips this completely and just turns off. Any similar problems? any ideas?

let me clarify one point, when I let mine run to zero, it goes into safe sleep and shuts down. I have to hit the power button to start it back up, that is when I see the safe sleep recovery screen and then all is back to normal.

Yes, I understand it is the normal process. And I understand too that, in your situation, it occurs all the times that battery works until it reach 0%. Ok.

My question was if have you some document unsaved when it occurs, but I understand now (too) that it could be an irrelevant answer.
