Setting a Power-On Access password helps protect information stored in
your system unit. If a power-on access password is set for your system
unit, the power-on access status icon is shown in the locked position. If a
power-on access password is not set, then the power-on access status
icon is shown in the unlocked position (as shown in the screen above).
When you select the Set icon, a screen with eight empty boxes displays.
Type your password in these boxes. You can use any combination of up to
eight characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for your password. As you type a
character, a key appears in the box.
