User Guide
Note: After this operation, all existing data in the system partition will
be lost, but other partitions on the disk will remain unchanged. In order
to prevent loss of data, be sure to back up important data before this
operation.
Note: Do not change the size of partition drive C after the backup
operation. This will ensure that the required space for every recovery
option is available.
Detailed Operation Procedure (example: Recovering Factory Backup):
1. Turn on the computer. When the Lenovo logo appears, press the F2 key on the
keyboard to start the Rescue System, then you can select OneKey Recovery.

Note: System Recovery will overwrite all of the data on drive C. To prevent
loss of data, be sure to back up relevant data before performing system
recovery.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions, and press E on the keyboard to start recovery
if you are sure you want to recover.
4. Please wait during the process of system recovery. Do not interrupt the

the computer. Restart the computer and enter the system.
