Protecting Data with the Access Key
Access Lock
Unlocked
Access Key
Locked
The power switch cannot be rotated when it is locked with the Access Key (in-
cluded). Therefore, the Access Key prevents the computer from being started up by
other people and can protect the data on the hard disk.
In addition, it can prevent the theft of the hard disk since the cover at the base of the
computer is also locked and cannot be opened.
How to Lock the Computer: Insert the key and turn it to the Locked position.
How to Unlock the Computer: Insert the key and turn it to the Unlocked position.
After locking/unlocking the computer, we recommend removing the Access Key
from the lock for security purposes.
Do not lose the Access Key. If both keys are lost, contact Panasonic Technical
Support to replace the Access Keys and the Access Lock.
NOTE
Windows 98 Windows 2000
Protecting the data using the Access Key cannot be performed in the following
cases, since the power of the computer is on even without rotating the power switch.
When the Ring Resume function is in use.
When the computer is in the [Standby] or [Hibernation] mode and the LCD is
closed. (This is when [When I close the lid of my computer:] in [Start] - [Set-
tings] - [Control Panel] - [Power Management]* - [Advanced] is set to [Standby]
or [Hibernation].)
