Maintaining security when the battery is not fully charged

When the battery is not fully charged (even if the computer is operating on AC power) your display may reappear automatically after a short time. To protect your desktop, you must set up a screen saver with a password before activating the password feature.

To set up a password with a screen saver, go to Windows online Help for instructions:

1Click Start, and then Help and Support.

2In the Search field, type password screen saver.

3Press Enter.

4Click the Protect your files with a screen saver password link located under the suggested topics.

Follow the steps listed in the Windows online Help to set up your password-protected screen saver.

To ensure the password protection is activated after pressing Fn + F1 (to activate instant security), wait ten seconds before walking away from the computer.
