Using passwords
Using passwords helps prevent your computer from being used by others.
Once you set a password and enable it, a prompt appears on the screen each
time you power on the computer. Enter your password at the prompt. The
computer cannot be used unless you enter the correct password.
For details about how to set the password, see the Help to the right of the
screen in BIOS setup utility.
Note: This password can be from one to seven alphanumeric characters in any combination.
Note: To enter BIOS setup utility, press Fn + F2 (when HotKey Switch is set to Hotkey
Mode
) or F2 (when HotKey Switch is set to Legacy Mode) when the Lenovo logo
appears on the screen while the computer is starting up.
