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:

(Type A) into the USB port on your computer.
The first time you plug a USB device into a particular USB port on your
computer, Windows automatically installs a driver for that device. After the
driver is installed, you can disconnect and reconnect the device without
performing any additional steps.
Note: Typically, Windows detects a new device after connecting it, and then installs the
driver automatically. However, some devices may require you to install the driver
before connecting. Check the documentation provided by the device’s manufacturer
before connecting the device.
Before disconnecting a USB storage device, make sure your computer has
finished transferring data by that device. Click the Safely Remove Hardware
icon in the notification area of Windows to remove the device before
disconnecting.

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.
Notes:
• 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.

type of recovery disc you want to create and follow the on-screen
instructions.
• Insert additional recordable disc(s) when prompted.
24
Chapter 4. OneKey Rescue system
Notes:
• The estimated number of discs needed will be displayed before the process of creating the
