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 leave the base of your computer, or any other part that becomes
hot during operation, in contact with your lap or any part of your body
for an extended period when the computer is functioning or when the
battery is charging. Your computer dissipates some heat during normal
operation. This heat is a function of the level of system activity and
battery charge level. Extended contact with your body, even through
clothing, could cause discomfort or, eventually, a skin burn.
When the AC adapter is connected to an electrical outlet and your
computer, it generates heat. Do not place the adapter in contact with any
part of your body while using it. Never use the AC adapter to warm
your body. Extended contact with your body, even through clothing,
may cause a skin burn.
Route the cables of an AC adapter, a mouse, a keyboard, a printer, or any
other electronic device, or communication lines, so that they cannot be
walked on, tripped over, pinched by your computer or other objects, or in
any way subjected to treatment that could disturb the operation of your
computer. Applying strong force to the cables may damage or break them.

Chapter 6. Safety, Use, and Care Information
Place liquids away from your computer to avoid spills, and keep your
computer away from water (to avoid the danger of electrical shock).
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.
Note:
Not all such appliances cause a significant electrostatic charge.
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.
- 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.

Chapter 6. Safety, Use, and Care Information
At least once a week, make a point to back up your data. If critical data is
present, it is a good idea to perform a daily backup. Lenovo has many
backup options available for your computer. CD-RW drives and CD-
RW/DVD drives are available for most computers and are easily
installed.
Use or schedule System Restore to take a system snapshot periodically.
Note:
Always take a system snapshot before installing new drivers, updating
software, or installing new software.
Update device drivers and BIOS when needed.
Profile your machine at http://consumersupport.lenovo.com to keep up
to date with current drivers and revisions.
Keep up to date on device drivers on other non-Lenovo hardware. You
might want to read the device driver information release notes prior to
updating for compatibility or known issues.
Keep a log book. Entries might include major hardware or software
changes, driver updates, minor issues you have experienced and how
you resolved them.
If you ever need to run a recovery operation on your computer to return
the contents of the hard disk to the factory-installed state, the following
tips might help along the way:
Remove all external devices such as the printer, keyboard, and so
on.
Make sure that the battery is charged and that you have the AC
power adapter connected.
Boot into the BIOS and load the default settings.
S9-S10 User Guide V1.0_en.book Page 84 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 5:53 PM

Turn off the computer and start the recovery process.
If your computer uses discs as the recovery media, do not remove
the disc from the drive until you are prompted to do so.
If required, you can find your country's Customer Support Center at the
following Web address: http://consumersupport.lenovo.com.
When calling the Customer Support Center, please make sure you have
your machine type, model, and serial number available and the
computer is in front of you. Also, if the machine is producing error
codes, it is helpful to have the error screen on or the message written
down.
Device drivers are programs that contain instructions for the operating
system about how to operate or “drive” a certain piece of hardware. Each
hardware component on your computer has its own specific driver. If you
add a new component, the operating system needs to be instructed on
how to operate that piece of hardware. After you install the driver, the
operating system can recognize the hardware component and understand
how to use it.
Note:
Due to the fact that drivers are programs, like any other file on your
computer, they are susceptible to corruption and might not perform
properly if corruption occurs.

Appendix A. Lenovo Limited Warranty
This Lenovo Limited Warranty applies only to Lenovo hardware products
you purchased for your own use and not for resale. This warranty may
sometimes be referred to as the “Statement of Limited Warranty” (SOLW)
in other documents from Lenovo.
What This Warranty Covers
Lenovo warrants that each hardware product is free from defects in materials
and workmanship under normal use during the warranty period. The
warranty period for the product starts on the original date of purchase
specified on your invoice unless Lenovo informs you otherwise in writing.
The warranty period and type of warranty service that apply to your product
are designated below under the section titled “Warranty Information.”
THIS WARRANTY IS YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTY AND
REPLACES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME STATES OR
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES APPLY ONLY
TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY LAW AND ARE LIMITED IN
DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES APPLY
AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT
ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY
LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION ON DURATION MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU.

87
How to Obtain Warranty Service
If the product does not function as warranted during the warranty period,
you may obtain warranty service by contacting Lenovo or an approved
service provider. Each of them is referred to as a “Service Provider.” A list
of Service Providers and their telephone numbers is available at
consumersupport.lenovo.com.
Warranty service may not be available in all locations and may differ from
location to location. Charges may apply outside a Service Provider’s
normal service area. Contact a local Service Provider for location-specific
information.
What Your Service Provider Will Do to Correct Problems
When you contact a Service Provider, you must follow the problem
determination and resolution procedures specified.
Your Service Provider will attempt to diagnose and resolve your problem
over the telephone or through remote assistance. Your Service Provider
may direct you to download and install designated software updates.
Some problems can be resolved with a replacement part that you install
yourself (such as mouse, speaker), called a “Customer Replaceable Unit” or
“CRU.” If so, your Service Provider will ship the CRU to you for you to
install.
If your problem cannot be resolved over the telephone or remotely, through
your application of software updates, or with a CRU, your Service Provider
S9-S10 User Guide V1.0_en.book Page 87 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 5:53 PM
88
Appendix A. Lenovo Limited Warranty
will arrange for service under the type of warranty service designated for
the product under the section titled “Warranty Information.”
If your Service Provider determines that it is unable to repair your product,
your Service Provider will replace it with one that is at least functionally
equivalent.
If your Service Provider determines that it is unable to either repair or
replace your product, your sole remedy is to return the product to your
place of purchase or to Lenovo and your purchase price will be refunded.
Exchange of a Product or Part
When the warranty service involves the exchange of a product or part, the
item your Service Provider replaces becomes Lenovo’s property and the
replacement becomes yours. All removed items must be genuine and
unaltered. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working
order and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The
replacement assumes the warranty status of the replaced item.
Before your Service Provider exchanges a product or part, you agree to:
1. remove all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not
under warranty service;
2. ensure that the product is free of any legal obligations or restrictions
that prevent its exchange;
3. obtain authorization from the owner to have your Service Provider
service a product that you do not own.

89
Your Additional Responsibilities
Where applicable, before service is provided, you agree to:
1. follow the service request procedures that your Service Provider
specifies;
2. backup or secure all programs and data contained in the product;
3. provide your Service Provider with all system keys or passwords and
sufficient, free, and safe access to your facilities to permit the terms of
this warranty to be fulfilled;
4. ensure that all information about identified or identifiable individuals
(“Personal Data”) is deleted from the product or that, with respect to
any remaining Personal Data you did not delete, you are in compliance
with all applicable laws.
Use of Personal Information
If you obtain service under this warranty, Lenovo will store, use and
process information about your warranty issue and your contact
information, including name, phone numbers, address, and e-mail address.
Lenovo will use this information to perform service under this warranty
and to improve our business relationship with you, such as to conduct
internal reviews of the efficiency of the warranty service we provide to you.
We may contact you to inquire about your satisfaction regarding our
warranty service or to notify you about any product recalls or safety issues.
We may also provide this information to entities acting on our behalf to
accomplish these purposes.

Appendix B. 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.

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) mark applies only
to countries within the European Union (EU) and Norway. Appliances are
labeled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC concerning
waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). The Directive
determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances
as applicable throughout the European Union. This label is applied to
various products to indicate that the product is not to be thrown away, but
rather reclaimed upon end of life per this Directive.
Users of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with the WEEE marking
per Annex IV of the WEEE Directive must not dispose of end of life EEE as
unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to
them for the return, recycle, recovery of WEEE and minimize any potential
effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to the presence of
hazardous substances. For additional WEEE information go to:

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.

Appendix D. Notices
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.
