Administrator password

Your administrator password protects the configuration settings and system identification information in Setup Utility. After this password is set, you must enter it each time you access Setup Utility.

Your administrator password is not interchangeable with an administrator password set in Windows, nor is it displayed as it is set, entered, changed, or deleted. Be sure that you record your password and store it in a safe place.

If you enter the administrator password at the first password check before the “Press the ESC key for Startup Menu” message is displayed, you do not have to enter it again to access the Setup Utility.
