Can MacMini M1 auto sleep or is turn off dis

Dear Apple community,


I would like to ask, can the MacMini M1 actually go to sleep automatically?


Cause I notice in the energy saver page, there's only auto turn off display.

Does that actually means that it will auto sleep or i have to manually click sleep everytime?


The reason I asked is because I notice the white light on my Mac Mini is lit even though the display is auto turned off.



If it helps I ran a % pmset -g assertions in terminal and this showed. I don't really know what it means below, but I saw in another forum and it was mentioned that running this could help?


Thanks in advance.
