Chapter 4. Security

This chapter provides information about the tablet security.

You can attach a mechanical lock to the keyboard dock to prevent the tablet from being removed without

your permission.

To attach a mechanical lock to the keyboard dock, do the following:

1. Open the small cover of the keyboard dock

2. Pull out the keyhole

3. Secure the chain on the lock to a stationary object. Refer to the instructions shipped with the

mechanical lock.

Note: You are responsible for evaluating, selecting, and implementing the locking device and security

feature. Lenovo makes no comments, judgments, or warranties about the function, quality, or performance

of the locking device and security feature.

By using passwords, you can prevent your tablet from being used by others. Once you set a password, a

prompt is displayed on the screen each time you turn on the tablet. Enter your password at the prompt by

using the onscreen keyboard. You cannot use the tablet unless you type the correct password.

If you have set passwords and you put your tablet into sleep mode:

• You are not prompted to enter the password when resuming operation.

• If the mSATA solid-state drive has a hard disk password, it is unlocked automatically when you resume

operation.

Note: If a Windows password has been set, you will be prompted to enter it.
