Explanation of hard disk capacity
Dear user,
While using your computer, you may find that the nominal hard disk capacity indicated is
somewhat different from the disk capacity displayed by the operating system. For example, a
nominal 40GB hard disk will appear as less than 40GB in the operating system. This
discrepancy is not an error in hard disk installation nor any other problem, but a normal
phenomenon of computers. This phenomenon is primarily due to the following reasons:
I. Different standards used by the manufacturer and operating system when
calculating hard disk capacity
Hard disk manufacturers use a radix of 1000, i.e., 1G = 1,000MB, 1MB = 1,000KB,
1KB = 1,000 bytes. However, when identifying hard disk capacity, operating systems use a radix
of 1024, i.e. 1GB = 1,024MB, 1MB = 1,024KB, 1KB = 1,024 bytes. The standard adopted by your
computer is that of the hard disk manufacturers. Since the standards adopted by the hard disk
manufacturer and operating system are different, the hard disk capacity displayed by the
operating system will be different from the nominal hard disk capacity.
For example, if the hard disk is nominally X G, even when it is completely empty, the capacity
displayed by the operating system will be:
X × 1000 × 1000 × 1000/ (1024 × 1024 × 1024) ≈ X × 0.931 G
In addition, if a portion of the hard disk space has been used for some specific purpose, then the
capacity indicated by the operating system will be even less than X × 0.931 G.
II. A portion of the hard disk space is used for specific purposes
Lenovo computers may come with preinstalled OneKey Rescue System, so the hard disk has a
special portion partitioned before delivery, which is used to store hard disk mirror and OneKey
Rescue System program files. The size of the reserved space for this partition varies according to
the model, operating system and software of the computer. For the sake of safety, this partition is
not apparent, which is commonly referred to as a “hidden partition”.
In addition, after the hard disk is partitioned or formatted, the system will assign a certain
amount of hard disk space for the system files.
For the above reasons, the available hard disk space indicated by the operating system is
always less than the computer’s nominal hard disk capacity.

Using AC adapter and battery -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
„
Checking battery status
You can determine the percentage of battery power remaining by using Windows Power
Options.
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.
The battery is charged when the AC adapter is connected to the computer and the battery is
installed.
Charging time will depend on the usage environment.
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
Notes:

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 Rescue under a 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 a 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 pre-installed software).
• You can use the Restore to factory default feature to restore the system partition (C drive)
back to the factory default, i.e., the state your computer was when you purchased it. Make
sure you back up any critical data stored on the system partition (C drive) to other media,
such as another disk partition, CD/DVD discs or removable storage devices.
„
Using Lenovo OneKey Recovery in Windows
In Windows, you can create a backup of an entire system partition, saving it on your local hard
disk. You can back up your data to a CD, DVD, or other removable disk. In addition, you can
also create Windows recovery disc(s) to boot and recover your system.
Notes:
•
The backup process and creating recovery disc 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.
For computers without an optical drive, an external optical drive is needed to back up or to create a
recovery disc.
For more instructions, see the help file of Lenovo OneKey Recovery.
„
Using Lenovo OneKey Recovery System without the main Windows operating
system
In the event that the operating system cannot be loaded, you need to recover your system with
the OneKey Rescue System, which includes several applications to help you detect and remove
viruses, and recover Windows system and data. Pressing the OneKey Rescue System key
will
activate Lenovo OneKey Rescue System when your PC is turned off. Within the program, you
can restore your system partition to the original factory status, or to a previously generated
backup. You may also transfer critical data or documents to other storage devices. All these
features make OneKey Rescue System an important utility for securing your data.
Note: It is not recoverable if Restore to factory default or Restore from backup has been run. Make sure to
back up any critical data before you run these features.

Appendix B. Use, and care information
Caring your computer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Though your computer is designed to function reliably in normal work environments, you need
to use common sense in handling it. By following these important tips, you will get the most use
and enjoyment out of your computer.
„
Be careful about where and how you work
• Do not eat or smoke over your keyboard. Particles that fall into your keyboard can cause
damage.
• Store packing materials safely out of the reach of children to prevent the risk of suffocation
from plastic bags.
• Keep your computer away from magnets, activated cellular phones, electrical appliances, or
speakers (within 13 cm or 5 in).
• Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperatures (below 5°C/41°F or above 35°C/
95°F).
• Some appliances, such as certain portable desktop fans or air purifiers, can produce negative
ions. If a computer is close to such an appliance, and is exposed for an extended time to air
containing negative ions, it may become electrostatically charged. Such a charge may be
discharged through your hands when you touch the keyboard or other parts of the computer,
or through connectors on I/O devices connected to it. Even though this kind of electrostatic
discharge (ESD) is the opposite of a discharge from your body or clothing to the computer, it
poses the same risk of a computer malfunction.
Your computer is designed and manufactured to minimize any effects of electrostatic charge.
An electrostatic charge above a certain limit, however, can increase the risk of ESD. Therefore,
when using the computer close to an appliance that can produce negative ions, give special
attention to the following:
- Avoid directly exposing your computer to the air from an appliance that can produce
negative ions.
- Keep your computer and peripherals as far as possible from such an appliance.
- Wherever possible, ground your computer to facilitate safe electrostatic discharge.
„
Notice of static-electricity
When you handle options or CRUs, or perform any work inside the computer, take the
following precautions to avoid static-electricity damage:
- Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.
- Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters, memory modules, and other circuit
boards by the edges. Never touch exposed circuitry.
- Prevent others from touching components.
- When you install a static-sensitive option or CRU, touch the static-protective package
containing the part to a metal expansion-slot cover or other unpainted metal surface on the
computer for at least two seconds. This reduces static electricity in the package and your
body.
40
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Appendix B. Use, and care information
- Whenever possible, remove the static-sensitive part from the static-protective packaging
and install the part without setting it down. When this is not possible, place the static-
protective packaging on a smooth, level surface and place the part on it.
- Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.
„
„
Be gentle with your computer
• Avoid placing any objects (including paper) between the display and the keyboard or under
the keyboard.
• Do not drop, bump, scratch, twist, hit, vibrate, push, or place heavy objects on your computer,
display, or external devices.
• Avoid turning the display beyond 130°.
Carry your computer properly
• Before moving your computer, be sure to remove any media, turn off attached devices, and
disconnect cords and cables.
• Be sure your computer is in sleep or hibernation mode, or turned off, before moving it. This
will prevent damage to the hard disk drive and data loss.
• When picking up your open computer, hold it by the bottom. Do not pick up or hold your
computer by the display.
• Use a quality carrying case that provides adequate cushion and protection. Do not pack your
computer in a tightly packed suitcase or bag.
„
„
For outdoor use
• Backup your critical data before you take your computer outdoors.
• Ensure that the battery is full.
• Be sure to turn off the power and close the LCD well.
• When you leave the computer in your car, place it on the back seat to avoid being insolated.
• Carry the AC adapter and power cord with the computer.
Handle storage media and drives properly
• If your computer comes with an optical drive, do not touch the surface of a disc or the lens on
the tray.
• Wait until you hear the CD or DVD click into the center pivot of an optical drive before
closing the tray.
• When installing your hard disk, follow the instructions shipped with your hardware, and
apply pressure only where needed on the device.

Appendix B. Use, and care information
„
Data safety
• Do not delete unknown files or change the name of files or directories that were not created by
you; otherwise, your computer software might fail to work.
• Be aware that accessing network resources can leave your computer vulnerable to computer
viruses, hackers, spyware, and other malicious activities that might damage your computer,
software, or data.
• It is your responsibility to ensure that you have adequate protection in the form of firewalls,
antivirus software, and anti-spyware software and keep this software up to date.
„
„
Take care in setting passwords
• Remember your passwords. If you forget a supervisor or hard disk password, Lenovo
authorized service providers will not reset it, and you might have to replace your system
board or hard disk drive.
Other important tips
• 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.
• Your 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.
• Register your Lenovo products with Lenovo (refer to the Web page:
http://consumersupport.lenovo.com). 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.
• Only an authorized Lenovo repair technician should disassemble and repair your computer.
• Do not modify or tape the latches to keep the display open or closed.
• Take care not to turn your computer over while the AC adapter is plugged in. This could
break the adapter plug.
• Turn off your computer if you are replacing a device, or else verify that the device is warm- or
hot-swappable.
• Before you install any of the following devices, touch a metal table or a grounded metal object.
This action reduces any static electricity from your body. The static electricity could damage
the device.
- ExpressCard
- Memory Card, such as SD Card, Memory Stick, MultiMediaCard, xD-Picture Card, and
Memory Stick Pro card.

Appendix C. Lenovo limited warranty
If required, your Service Provider will provide repair or exchange service depending on the type of
warranty service specified for your product and the available service. Scheduling of service will
depend upon the time of your call, parts availability, and other factors.
„
Types of warranty service
1 Customer Replaceable Unit (“CRU”) Service
Under CRU Service, your Service Provider will ship CRUs to you for installation by you. CRU
information and replacement instructions are shipped with your product and are available from
Lenovo at any time upon request. CRUs that are easily installed by you are called Self-service
CRUs, while Optional-service CRUs may require some technical skill and tools. Installation of
Self-service CRUs is your responsibility. You may request that a Service Provider install
Optional-service CRUs under one of the other types of warranty service designated for your
product. An optional service offering may be available for purchase from Lenovo to have
Lenovo install Self-service CRUs for you. You may find a list of CRUs and their designation in
the publication that ships with your product or at www.lenovo.com/CRUs. The requirement to
return a defective CRU, if any, will be specified in the materials shipped with a replacement
CRU. When return is required: 1) return instructions, a prepaid return shipping label, and a
container will be included with the replacement CRU; and 2) you may be charged for the
replacement CRU if your Service Provider does not receive the defective CRU within thirty (30)
days of your receipt of the replacement.
2 On-site Service
Under On-Site Service, your Service Provider will either repair or exchange the product at your
location. You must provide a suitable working area to allow disassembly and reassembly of the
Lenovo product. For some products, certain repairs may require your Service Provider to send
the product to a designated service center.
3 Courier or Depot Service
Under Courier or Depot Service, your product will be repaired or exchanged at a designated
service center, with shipping arranged by your Service Provider. You are responsible for
disconnecting the product. A shipping container will be provided to you for you to return your
product to a designated service center. A courier will pick up your product and deliver it to the
designated service center. Following its repair or exchange, the service center will arrange the
return delivery of the product to you.
4 Customer Carry-In or Mail-In Service
Under Customer Carry-In or Mail-In Service, your product will be repaired or exchanged at a
designated service center, with delivery or shipping arranged by you. You are responsible to
deliver or mail, as your Service Provider specifies, (prepaid by you unless specified otherwise)
the product, suitably packaged to a designated location. After the product has been repaired or
exchanged, it will be made available for your collection. Failure to collect the product may result
in your Service Provider disposing of the product as it sees fit. For Mail-in Service, the product
will be returned to you at Lenovo’s expense, unless your Service Provider specifies otherwise.

Appendix C. Lenovo limited warranty
5 Product Exchange Service
Under Product Exchange Service, Lenovo will ship a replacement product to your location. You
are responsible for its installation and verification of its operation. The replacement product
becomes your property in exchange for the failed product, which becomes the property of
Lenovo. You must pack the failed product in the shipping carton used to ship the replacement
product and return it to Lenovo. Transportation charges, both ways, are paid by Lenovo. Failure
to use the carton in which the replacement product was received may result in your
responsibility for damage to the failed product during shipment. You may be charged for the
replacement product if Lenovo does not receive the failed product within thirty (30) days of
your receipt of the replacement product.

Appendix D. Customer replaceable units (CRUs)
Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs) are computer parts that can be upgraded or replaced by the
customer. There are two types of CRUs: internal and external. External CRUs are easy to install,
whereas internal CRUs require some technical skills and in some cases might require tools such
as a screwdriver. However, both internal and external CRUs are safe for removal by the
customer.
Customers are responsible for replacing all external CRUs. Internal CRUs can be removed and
installed by customers or by a Lenovo service technician during the warranty period.
Your computer contains the following types of external CRUs:
• External CRUs (pluggable): These CRUs unplug from the computer. Examples of these types
of CRUs include the AC adapter and power cord.
• External CRUs with latches: These CRUs include a latch to help you remove and replace the
part. Examples of these types of CRUs include the notebook main battery, an optical drive, a
hard-disk drive, and an extended battery.
Your computer contains the following types of internal CRUs:
• Internal CRUs (located behind an access panel): These CRUs are isolated parts within the
computer that are concealed by an access panel that is typically secured by either one or two
screws. Once the access panel is removed, only the specific CRU is visible. Examples of these
types of CRUs include memory modules and hard disk drives.
• Internal CRUs (located within the product): These CRUs are accessible only by opening the
computer’s outer case. Examples of these CRUs include PCI Express Mini Cards and the
integrated keyboard.

Usage environment and your health
Wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card and Bluetooth Daughter Card emit radio frequency
electromagnetic energy like other radio devices. However, the level of energy emitted is far
much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like for example mobile
phones.
Due to the fact that wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card and Bluetooth Daughter Card operate
within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, Lenovo
believes the integrated wireless cards are safe for use by consumers. These standards and
recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and result from
deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the
extensive research literature.
In some situation or environment, the use of wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card or Bluetooth
Daughter Card may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible
representatives of the organization. These situations may for example include:
• Using the integrated wireless cards on board of airplanes, or in hospitals
• In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is
perceived or identified as harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a specific
organization (e.g., airport or hospital), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use
wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card or Bluetooth Daughter Card prior to turning on the
computer.

Safety information related to Mobile Broadband
1
Do not use the Mobile Broadband feature on your computer in highly flammable areas (e.g.
gas station) or near blasting. Though it is rare, the Mobile Broadband module, like other
cellular network devices, could generate a spark.
2
3
Avoid using Mobile Broadband feature outdoors during a thunderstorm.
Use of mobile devices on board aircraft is explicitly prohibited by many airlines companies,
especially during take-off and landing. The built-in Mobile Broadband module on your computer
is a low-power radio transceiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently receives and transmits
radio frequency (RF) energy which could cause interference with the operation of the airplane
communication or navigation system. Refer to rules or regulations of your airline company for
Mobile Broadband use. Never enable Mobile Broadband feature on your computer unless you are
explicitly permitted to do so.
4
5
Follow restrictions when using your computer in hospitals. Some equipments in hospitals are
sophisticated and are susceptible to electromagnetic interference. Do not enable Mobile
Broadband feature near medical equipment without requesting permission.
The Mobile Broadband communication may affect the operation of implanted cardiac pacemakers
and other medically implanted equipment. Patients with cardiac pacemakers should be well
aware that use of Mobile Broadband feature on this computer may cause the implanted device to
malfunction. If patients have any doubt that there is interference taking place, immediately
disable the wireless radio on the computer and contact the doctor for more information.

Notice on deleting data from your hard disk -----------------------------------------------
As computers spread into every corner of life, they process more and more information. The
data on your computer, some of it sensitive, is stored on a storage device called the hard disk.
Before you dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer, you need to delete that data.
Handing your computer over to someone else without deleting the loaded software, such as
operating systems and application software, may even violate License Agreements. You are
advised to check the terms and conditions of those Agreements.
Deleting the data from the hard disk is not easy.
There are methods that seem to delete the data:
• Move the data to the recycle bin, and then choose the Empty recycle bin command.
• Use the Delete command.
• Format your hard disk, using the software for initializing it.
• Using the preinstalled recovery program, bring the hard disk back to factory-ship state.
These operations, however, only change the file allocation of the data; they do not delete the
data itself. In other words, the data retrieval processing is disabled under an operating system
such as Windows. The data is still there, even though it seems to be lost. Thus, it is sometimes
possible to read the data by use of special software for data recovery. There is a risk that people
of bad faith may read and misuse the critical data on hard disks for unexpected purposes.
To prevent the leakage of data, it becomes very important that you take responsibility for
deleting all the data from the hard disk when you dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer.
You can destroy the data physically by smashing the hard disk with a hammer, or magnetically
by means of strong magnetic power, thus making the data unreadable. But we recommend that
you make use of the software (payware) or service (pay service) specifically developed for the
purpose.
