Limited Warranty. For more information, see “Warranty Information” in the Safety, Warranty, and Setup Guide
that comes with your tablet.
Customer safety is important. Our products are developed to be safe and effective. However, tablets are
electronic devices. Power cords, power adapters, and other features can create potential safety risks
that can result in physical injury or property damage, especially if misused. To reduce these risks, follow
the instructions included with your product, observe all warnings on the product and in the operating
instructions, and review the information included in this document carefully. By carefully following the
information contained in this document and provided with your product, you can help protect yourself from
hazards and create a safer tablet work environment.
Note: This information includes references to power adapters and batteries. In addition to tablets, some
products (such as speakers and monitors) ship with external power adapters. If you have such a product,
this information applies to your product.
Conditions that require immediate action
Products can become damaged due to misuse or neglect. Some product damage is serious enough
that the product should not be used again until it has been inspected and, if necessary, repaired by
an authorized servicer.
As with any electronic device, pay close attention to the product when it is turned on. On very rare
occasions, you might notice an odor or see a puff of smoke or sparks vent from your product. Or you
might hear sounds like popping, cracking, or hissing. These conditions might merely mean that an
internal electronic component has failed in a safe and controlled manner. Or, they might indicate
a potential safety issue. However, do not take risks or attempt to diagnose the situation yourself.
Contact the Customer Support Center for further guidance. For a list of Service and Support phone
numbers, see the following Web site:
http://www.lenovo.com/support/phone
Frequently inspect your tablet and its components for damage or wear or signs of danger. If you have
any question about the condition of a component, do not use the product. Contact the Customer
Support Center or the product manufacturer for instructions on how to inspect the product and
have it repaired, if necessary.
In the unlikely event that you notice any of the following conditions, or if you have any safety
concerns with your product, stop using the product and unplug it from the power source and
telecommunication lines until you can speak to the Customer Support Center for further guidance.
• Power cords, plugs, power adapters, extension cords, surge protectors, or power supplies that are
cracked, broken, or damaged.
• Signs of overheating, smoke, sparks, or fire.
© Copyright Lenovo 2016
iii
• Damage to a battery (such as cracks, dents, or creases), discharge from a battery, or a buildup of foreign
substances on the battery.
• A cracking, hissing, or popping sound, or strong odor that comes from the product.
• Signs that liquid has been spilled or an object has fallen onto the tablet product, the power cord, or
power adapter.
• The product, power cord, or power adapter has been exposed to water.
• The product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
• The product does not operate normally when you follow the operating instructions.
Note: If you notice these conditions with a product (such as an extension cord) that is not manufactured for
or by Lenovo, stop using that product until you can contact the product manufacturer for further instructions,
or until you get a suitable replacement.
Prevent your tablet and adapter from getting wet:
Do not immerse your tablet in water or leave it in a location where it can get saturated with water or other
liquids.
Protect yourself from the heat generated by your tablet:
When your tablet is turned on or the battery is charging, some parts might become hot. The temperature
that they reach depends on the amount of system activity and the level of charge in the battery. Extended
contact with your body, even through clothing, could cause discomfort or even a skin burn. Avoid keeping
your hands, your lap, or any other part of your body in contact with a hot section of the tablet for any
extended time.
Protect yourself from the heat generated by the ac power adapter:
When the ac power adapter is connected to an electrical outlet and your tablet, it generates heat. Extended
contact with your body, even through clothing, may cause a skin burn. Do not place the ac power adapter in
contact with any part of your body while it is in use. Never use it to warm your body.
Protect the cables from being damaged:
Applying strong force to cables may damage or break them. Route communication lines, or the cables of an
ac power adapter, a mouse, a keyboard, a printer, or any other electronic device, so that they cannot be
walked on, tripped over, pinched by your tablet or other objects, or in any way subjected to treatment that
could interfere with the operation of your tablet.
Prevent hearing damage:
Your tablet has a combo audio connector that you can use for headphones (also called a headset) or
earphones.
CAUTION:
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss. Adjustment of
the equalizer to maximum increases the earphone and headphone output voltage and the sound
pressure level. Therefore, to protect your hearing, adjust the equalizer to an appropriate level.
Excessive use of headphones or earphones for a long period of time at high volume can be dangerous if
the output of the headphone or earphone connectors do not comply with specifications of EN 50332-2.
The headphone output connector of your tablet complies with EN 50332-2 Sub clause 7. This specification
iv
ThinkPad X1 Tablet User Guide
limits the tablet's maximum wide band true RMS output voltage to 150 mV. To help protect against hearing
loss, ensure that the headphones or earphones you use also comply with EN 50332-2 (Clause 7 limits) for a
wide band characteristic voltage of 75 mV. Using headphones that do not comply with EN 50332-2 can be
dangerous due to excessive sound pressure levels.
If your tablet came with headphones or earphones in the package, as a set, the combination of the
headphones or earphones and the tablet already complies with the specifications of EN 50332-1. If different
headphones or earphones are used, ensure that they comply with EN 50332-1 (Clause 6.5 Limitation
Values). Using headphones that do not comply with EN 50332-1 can be dangerous due to excessive
sound pressure levels.
Carry your tablet carefully:
Use a quality carrying case that provides adequate cushioning and protection. Do not pack your tablet in a
tightly packed suitcase or bag. Before putting your tablet in a carrying case, make sure that the tablet is off
or in sleep mode. Do not put a tablet in a carrying case while it is on.
Handle your tablet with care:
Do not drop, bend, puncture, insert foreign objects into, or place heavy objects on your tablet. Sensitive
components inside might get damaged.
Glass parts notice
CAUTION:
Some parts of your product may be made of glass. This glass could break if the product is dropped
on a hard surface or receives a substantial impact. If glass breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove
the glass. Stop using your product until the glass is replaced by trained service personnel.
Take care when using your tablet in a motor vehicle or on a bicycle:
Always prioritize your safety and the safety of others. Follow the law. Local laws and regulations might
govern how you can use mobile electronic devices, such as your tablet, while you drive a motor vehicle
or ride a bicycle.
Service and upgrades
Do not attempt to service a product yourself unless instructed to do so by Lenovo Customer Support Center
or your documentation. Only use a Service Provider who is approved to repair your particular product.
Note: Some tablet parts can be upgraded or replaced by the customer. Upgrades typically are referred to as
options. Replacement parts approved for customer installation are referred to as Customer Replaceable
Units, or CRUs. Lenovo provides documentation with instructions when it is appropriate for customers to
install options or replace CRUs. You must closely follow all instructions when installing or replacing parts.
The Off state of a power indicator does not necessarily mean that voltage levels inside a product are zero.
Before you remove the covers from a product equipped with a power cord, always make sure that the
power is turned off and that the product is unplugged from any power source. If you have any questions or
concerns, contact Lenovo Customer Support Center.
Although there are no moving parts in your tablet after the power cord has been disconnected, the following
warnings are required for your safety.

Hazardous moving parts. Keep fingers and other body parts away.
Power cords and power adapters
DANGER
Use only the power cords and power adapters supplied by the product manufacturer.
The power cords shall be safety approved. For Germany, it shall be H05VV-F, 3G, 0.75 mm2, or
better. For other countries, the suitable types shall be used accordingly.
Never wrap a power cord around a power adapter or other object. Doing so can stress the cord in
ways that can cause the cord to fray, crack, or crimp. This can present a safety hazard.
Always route power cords so that they will not be walked on, tripped over, or pinched by objects.
Protect power cords and power adapters from liquids. For instance, do not leave your power cord
or power adapter near sinks, tubs, toilets, or on floors that are cleaned with liquid cleansers.
Liquids can cause a short circuit, particularly if the power cord or power adapter has been stressed
by misuse. Liquids also can cause gradual corrosion of power cord terminals and/or the connector
terminals on a power adapter, which can eventually result in overheating.
Always connect power cords and signal cables in the correct order and ensure that all power cord
connectors are securely and completely plugged into receptacles.
Do not use any power adapter that shows corrosion at the ac input pins or shows signs of
overheating (such as deformed plastic) at the ac input pins or anywhere on the power adapter.
Do not use any power cords where the electrical contacts on either end show signs of corrosion or
overheating or where the power cord appears to have been damaged in any way.
To prevent possible overheating, do not cover the power adapter with clothing or other objects
when the power adapter is plugged into an electrical outlet.
Extension cords and related devices
Ensure that extension cords, surge protectors, uninterruptible power supplies, and power strips that you use
are rated to handle the electrical requirements of the product. Never overload these devices. If power strips
are used, the load should not exceed the power strip input rating. Consult an electrician for more information
if you have questions about power loads, power requirements, and input ratings.

a non-grounded outlet. If you cannot insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician for an
approved outlet adapter or to replace the outlet with one that enables this safety feature. Never
overload an electrical outlet. The overall system load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch
circuit rating. Consult an electrician for more information if you have questions about power loads
and branch circuit ratings.
Be sure that the power outlet you are using is properly wired, easily accessible, and located close
to the equipment. Do not fully extend power cords in a way that will stress the cords.
Be sure that the power outlet provides the correct voltage and current for the product you are
installing.

• Message: Error: The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is nearly full.
Note: This error indicates that the operating system or applications cannot create, modify, or delete data
in the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage due to insufficient storage space after the POST.
The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is used by the UEFI BIOS and by the operating system or
applications. This error occurs when the operating system or applications store large amounts of data
in the variable storage. All data needed for the POST, such as BIOS setup settings, chipset or platform
configuration data, are stored in a separate UEFI variable storage.
Solution: Enter ThinkPad Setup after the error message is displayed. A dialog asks the user for
confirmation to clean up the storage. If the user selects Yes, all data that were created by the operating
system or applications are deleted except global variables defined by the Unified Extensible Firmware
Interface Specification. If the user selects No, all data is kept, but the operating system or applications
will not be able to create, modify, or delete data in the storage.
If this error happens at a service center, Lenovo-authorized service personnel will clean up the non-volatile
system UEFI variable storage using the above solution.
