Chapter 3. Lenovo OneKey Recovery system
The Lenovo OneKey Recovery system is software designed to back up and
restore your computer. You can use it to restore the system partition to its
original status in case of a system failure. You can also create user backups
for easy restoration as required.
Notes:
• If your computer is preinstalled with an operating system other than Windows, OneKey
Recovery system is not available.
• To utilize the features of the OneKey Recovery system, your hard disk already includes a
hidden partition by default to store the system image file and the OneKey Recovery
system program files. This default partition is hidden for security reasons, which explains
why the available disk space is less than the stated capacity.
 Backing up the system partition
You can back up the system partition to an image file. To back up the system
partition:
1 Press the Novo button to start the Lenovo OneKey Recovery system.
2 Enter System Recovery.
3 Select a back‐up location and click Next to start the backup.
Notes:
• You can choose a back‐up location on the local hard disk drive or an external storage device.
• Remove the removable hard disk drive before starting the Lenovo OneKey Recovery
system. Otherwise, data from the removable hard disk drive might be lost.
• The back‐up process may take a while.
• The back‐up process is only available when Windows can be started normally.
 Restoring
You can choose to restore the system partition to its original status or to a
previously created back‐up point. To restore the system partition:
1 Press the Novo button to start the Lenovo OneKey Recovery system.
2 Enter System Recovery. The computer will restart to the recovery environment.
3 Follow the on‐screen instructions to restore the system partition to its
original status or to a previously created back‐up point.
Notes:
• The recovery process is irreversible. Make sure to back up any data you wish to save on
the system partition before starting the recovery process.
• The recovery process may take a while. So be sure to connect the AC power adapter to
your computer during the recovery process.
• The above instructions should be followed when Windows can be started normally.

Chapter 4. Troubleshooting
 Lenovo OneKey Recovery system
Where are the recovery discs?
Your computer did not come with recovery discs. Use the Lenovo OneKey
Recovery system if you need to restore the system to its factory status.
What can I do if the back-up process fails?
If you can start the backup but it fails during the back‐up process, try the
following steps:
1 Close all open programs, and then restart the back‐up process.
2 Check to see if the destination media is damaged. Select another path
and then try again.
When do I need to restore the system to its factory status?
Use this feature when the operating system fails to start up. If there is
critical data on the system partition, back it up before starting recovery.
 BIOS setup utility
What is the BIOS setup utility?
The BIOS setup utility is ROM‐based software. It communicates basic
computer information and provides options for setting boot devices,
security, hardware mode, and other preferences.
How can I start the BIOS setup utility?
To start the BIOS setup utility, do one of the following:
• Shut down the computer. Press the Novo button and then select BIOS
Setup.

Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Cards marketed in the USA and Canada do not support nor
function in the extended channels (12ch, 13ch).
i) The FCC RF Exposure compliance:
The radiated output power of the Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Card authorized to use for
the your Lenovo computer is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Neverthe‐
less, it shall be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal
operation is minimized as follows:
Caution: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, a separation distance of at least
20 cm (8 inches) must be maintained between the antennas connected to the wireless module
and all persons. If the distance may not be maintained while the computer display is closed,
you must set sleep as the power mode when closing the display.
ii) FCC ID of wireless module:
On the bottom side of your Lenovo computer, you will find an indicator label of the format
“Contains Transmitter Module: FCC ID XXXX”, where XXXX represents the FCC ID that corre‐
sponds to your preinstalled Wireless LAN module.
iii) Radio Frequency interference requirement:
Each device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device pur‐
suant to FCC Part 15 Subpart B. Refer to “Electronic emission notices” on page 5.
When you use a wireless LAN module in the 802.11 a/n transmission mode:
• High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5250 to 5350 MHz and 5650 to
5850 MHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage this
device.
II. Simultaneous use of RF transmitters
Make sure of the following conditions on use of wireless features:
1. When you use any other RF option device, all wireless features in your Lenovo computer
are required to be turned off.
2. Users must follow the RF Safety instructions on wireless option devices that are included
in the RF option deviceʹs userʹs manual.

Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Cards marketed in the USA and Canada do not support nor
function in the extended channels (12ch, 13ch).
There is no certification number of Industry Canada for Mini PCI Express Card shown on the
enclosure of your Lenovo computer. Instead you will find an indicator label pointing to the
location of the IC Certification number on the bottom side of your Lenovo computer. This label
will be of the format “Contains Transmitter Module: Canada IC: XXXX”, where XXXX repre‐
sents the IC ID that corresponds to your preinstalled WLAN module.
II) Low power license‐exempt radiocommunication devices (RSS‐210):
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference, and
2. this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
The transmitter devices have been designed to operate with the antennas integrated in
Lenovo computer, and having a maximum gain of within 3 dBi.
III) Exposure of humans to RF fields (RSS‐102):
Lenovo computers employ low gain integral antennas that do not emit RF field in excess of
Health Canada limits for the general population; consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from
Health Canada’s Web site at www.hc‐sc.gc.ca/rpb
The radiated energy from the antennas connected to the wireless adapters conforms to the
IC limit of the RF exposure requirement regarding IC RSS‐102, Issue 4 clause 4.2.
The maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the 5250‐5350 MHz, 5470‐5725 MHz,
and 5725‐5825 MHz bands complies with the e.i.r.p. limit in section A9.2 of RSS‐210.

indicatrice pointant vers l’emplacement du numéro d’homologation IC. L’étiquette se présente
sous la forme “Contains Transmitter Module: Canada IC: XXXX” où XXXX représente l’ID IC qui
correspond au module WLAN préinstallé.
II) Remarque relative aux appareils de communication radio de faible puissance sans
licence (CNR‐210):
Le fonctionnement de ce type d’appareil est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes:
1. Cet appareil ne doit pas perturber les communications radio, et
2. cet appareil doit supporter toute perturbation, y compris les perturbations qui pourraient
provoquer son dysfonctionnement.
Les périphériques d’émission sont conçus pour fonctionner avec des antennes intégrées aux

III) Exposition des êtres humains aux champs radioélectriques (RF) (CNR‐102):
L’ordinateur Lenovo utilise des antennes intégrales à faible gain qui n’émettent pas un
champ électromagnétique supérieur aux normes imposées par le Ministére de la santé cana‐
dien pour la population. Consultez le Safety Code 6 sur le site Web du Ministére de la santé
canadien à l’adresse “www.hc‐sc.gc.ca/rpb”.
