Lenovo S10 manual Attaching a security lock optional, Using passwords

Attaching a security lock (optional)

You can attach a security lock to your computer to help prevent it from being removed without your permission.

Attach a security lock to the keyhole of the computer; then secure the chain on the lock to a stationary object. Refer to the instructions shipped with the security lock.

See “Right-side view” on page 4 for the location of the security keyhole.

Note:

You are responsible for evaluating, selecting, and implementing the locking devices and security features. Lenovo makes no comments, judgements, or warranties about the function, quality, or performance of locking devices and security features.

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.

Make sure that only authorized individuals access your computer. Establishing different kinds of passwords requires that other possible users know the proper passwords in order to access your computer or your data.

As many as three passwords might be needed for your computer: the Supervisor password, the User password, and the Hard disk drive (HDD) password. When the Supervisor password is set, only the Supervisor password entitles you full control of the computer.
