Using AC adapter and battery----------------------------------------------------------  
Checking battery status  
You can determine the percentage of battery power remaining by checking  
the battery icon in the notification area.  
Note: As each computer user has different habits and needs, it is difficult to predict how  
long a battery charge will last. There are two main factors:  
• The amount of energy stored in the battery when you commence work.  
• The way you use your computer: for example, how often you access the hard  
disk drive and how bright you make the computer display.  
Charging the battery  
When you find that the battery power is low, you need to charge the battery  
or replace it with a fully charged one.  
You need to charge the battery in any of the following situations:  
• When you purchase a new battery  
• If the battery status indicator starts blinking  
• If the battery has not been used for a long time  
Note:  
• You are advised to insert the battery pack when using your computer to prevent small  
particles from entering the inside of your computer.  
• To increase the life of the battery pack, the computer does not start recharging the  
battery immediately after it drops from fully charged.  
• Charge the battery at a temperature between 50 °F and 86 °F (10 °C-30 °C).  
• Full charge or discharge is not required.

Chapter 2. Learning the basics  
Removing the battery pack  
If you are not going to use the computer for an extended period of time, or if  
you need to send your computer to Lenovo for service, etc. remove the  
battery pack from the computer. Before removing the battery pack, make  
sure the computer has been shut down.  
Handling the battery  
If the rechargeable battery pack is replaced with an incorrect type, there may  
be danger of an explosion. The battery pack contains a small amount of  
harmful substances. To avoid possible injury and detriment to the  
environment, pay attention to the following points:  
• Replace only with a battery of the type recommended by Lenovo.  
• Keep the battery pack away from fire.  
• Do not expose the battery pack to water or rain.  
• Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack.  
• Do not short-circuit the battery pack.  
• Keep the battery pack away from children.  
• Do not put the battery pack in trash that is disposed of in landfills. When  
disposing of the battery, comply with local ordinances or regulations and  
your company’s safety standards.

Chapter 4. OneKey Rescue system  
OneKey Rescue system ----------------------------------------------------------------------  
Introduction  
The Lenovo OneKey Rescue system is an easy-to-use application that can be  
used to back up the data on your system partition (C drive) for easy restore  
when required. You can run Lenovo OneKey Recovery under the Windows  
operating system, and the OneKey Rescue system without starting the  
Windows operating system.  
Attention:  
In order to utilize the features of the OneKey Rescue system, your hard disk  
already includes a hidden partition by default to store the system image file  
and OneKey Rescue system program files. This default partition is hidden  
for security reasons and is the reason the available disk space is less than it  
claims. The exact available hard disk space depends on the file size of the  
mirror image file (based on the size of operating system and preinstalled  
software).  
Using Lenovo OneKey Recovery (within Windows operating  
system)  
In Windows operating system, double click the OneKey Recovery system  
Icon on the desktop to launch Lenovo OneKey Recovery.  
Within the program, you can back up the system partition on the hard disk  
drive, other storage devices, or by creating recovery discs.  
Note:  
• The backup process and creation of recovery discs may take some time, connect the AC  
adapter and battery pack to your computer.  
• After the recovery discs are burned, please number them so that you can use them in the  
correct order.  
• Computers without an integrated optical drive support the creation of recovery discs;  
however an appropriate external optical drive is needed to physically create the recovery  
discs.  
For more instructions, see the Help file of Lenovo OneKey Recovery.

Chapter 4. OneKey Rescue system  
Using Lenovo OneKey Rescue system (without Windows  
operating system)  
In the event that the operating system cannot be loaded, follow the steps  
below to access OneKey Rescue system.  
• Shut down your computer.  
• Press the key to launch OneKey Rescue system.  
Within the program, you can choose to restore your system partition to the  
original factory status, or to a previously generated backup.  
Note: The recovery process is irreversible. Make sure to back up any critical data before  
using the recovery feature.

Replacing the hard disk drive -----------------------------------------------  
You can increase the storage capacity of your computer by replacing the hard  
disk drive with one of greater capacity. You can purchase a new hard disk  
drive from your reseller or Lenovo marketing representative.  
Note:  
• Replace the hard disk drive only if you upgrade it or have it repaired. The connectors and  
bay of the hard disk drive were not designed for frequent changes, or drive swapping.  
• The preinstalled softwares are not included on an optional hard disk drive.  
Handling a hard disk drive  
Do not drop the drive or subject it to physical shocks. Put the drive on a material,  
such as soft cloth, that absorbs the physical shock.  
Do not apply pressure to the cover of the drive.  
Do not touch the connector.  
The drive is very sensitive. Incorrect handling can cause damage and perma-  
nent loss of data on the hard disk. Before removing the hard disk drive, make  
a backup copy of all the information on the hard disk, and then turn the com-  
puter off. Never remove the drive while the system is operating, in sleep  
mode, or in hibernation mode.

Replacing memory --------------------------------------------------------------------------  
You can increase the amount of memory in your computer by installing a  
double-data-rate three synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR3  
SDRAM)-available as an option-in the memory slot of your computer. DDR3  
SDRAMs are available in various capacities.  
Note:  
• Use only the memory types supported by your computer. If you incorrectly install optional  
memory, or install an unsupported memory type, a warning beep will sound when you try  
to start the computer.  
• Select models of the computer may have only one memory slot. Refer to the actual product.  
However, the procedure for replacing the memory is the same as listed below.  
To install a DDR3 SDRAM, do the following:
