Respective Users Dear user, Thank you for purchasing your new Lenovo notebook computer! Before using this product, make sure to read this user guide carefully. We are pleased that you have chosen Lenovo for your mobile computing needs. To help you master the usage of your new computer quickly, we have prepared this user guide. In this manual you will find information on the system configuration, basic operating instructions, and important notices. We have done our best to avoid any errors in making sure that the information provided in this manual is accurate and reliable. However, due to the short length of the user guide it is impossible to cover all topics in great depth. For this reason, we apologize for any omissions you might find. Lenovo is always trying to improve the performance and reliability of its products. For that reason, the hardware and software components shown within the user guide might not perfectly match those of your system. However, any inconsistencies between what is described in the user guide and the operations of your computer should not substantially affect your use. Lenovo apologizes for any inconvenience that this issue might cause. Thank you for your cooperation. 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.

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. 63 • Avoid turning the display beyond 135°. • Do not drop, bump, scratch, twist, hit, vibrate, push, or place heavy objects on your computer, display, or external devices. • Avoid placing any objects (including paper) between the display and the keyboard or under the keyboard. Be gentle with your computer - Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface. - Whenever possible, remove the static-sensitive part from the staticprotective 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. - When you install a static-sensitive option or CRU, touch the staticprotective 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. - Prevent others from touching components. - Always handle components carefully.

To properly dispose of disused components, such as a printed circuit board or drive, use the methods described above for collecting and recycling a disused computer or monitor. Disposing a Disused Battery Pack from Lenovo Notebook Computers Your Lenovo notebook computer has a lithium ion battery pack or a nickel metal hydride battery pack. If you are a company employee who uses a Lenovo notebook computer and need to dispose of a battery pack, contact the proper person in Lenovo sales, service, or marketing, and follow that person’s instructions. You also can refer to the instructions at www.ibm.com/jp/pc/environment/recycle/battery http://www.ibm.com/jp/pc/environment/recycle/battery If you use a Lenovo notebook computer at home and need to dispose of a battery pack, you must comply with local ordinances and regulations. You also can refer to the instructions at www.ibm.com/jp/pc/environment/recycle/battery http://www.ibm.com/jp/pc/environment/recycle/battery 111 • Use the Delete command. • Move the data to the recycle bin, and then choose the Empty recycle bin command. There are methods that seem to delete the data: Deleting the data from the hard disk is not easy. 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. 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. Notice on deleting data from your hard disk --------------- See http://www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate. Perchlorate Material — special handling may apply. Products containing CR (manganese dioxide) lithium coin cell batteries may contain perchlorate. California Perchlorate Information: Notice for users in the U.S.A. ----------------------------------------------- Appendix E. Notices 112 Appendix E. Notices • 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. 113 Machine Type: 20115/1304 Appendix F.
