Take care in setting passwords

vRemember your passwords. If you forget a supervisor or hard disk password, Lenovo authorized service provider will not reset it, and you might have to replace your system board or hard disk drive.

Other important tips

vYour computer modem might use only an analog telephone network, or public-switched telephone network (PSTN).

Analog phone lines are often used in homes, while digital phone lines are often used in hotels or office buildings. If you are not sure which kind of phone line you are using, contact your telephone company.

vYour computer might have both an Ethernet connector and a modem connector. If so, be sure to connect your communication cable to the correct one, so your connector is not damaged.

vRegister your Lenovo products with Lenovo (refer to the Web page: http://www.lenovo.com/register). This can help authorities return your computer to you if it is lost or stolen. Registering your computer also enables Lenovo to notify you about possible technical information and upgrades.

vDo not modify or tape the latches to keep the display open or closed.

vTake care not to turn your computer over while the ac adapter is plugged in. This could break the adapter plug.

vTurn off your computer if you are replacing a device, or else verify that the device is warm- or hot-swappable.
