Locking your computer
This section provides instructions on how to lock your computer with the locking devices to keep your
computer safe.
Attaching a padlock
Locking the computer cover helps prevent unauthorized people from gaining access to the inside of your
computer. Your computer comes with a padlock loop so that the computer cover cannot be removed when a
padlock is installed.

Attaching a Kensington-style cable lock
You can use a Kensington-style cable lock to secure your computer to a desk, table, or other non-permanent
fixture. The cable lock attaches to the security-lock slot at the rear of your computer. Depending on the type
selected, the cable lock can be operated with a key or combination. The cable lock also locks the buttons
used to open the computer cover. This is the same type of lock used with many notebook computers. You
can order such a cable lock directly from Lenovo by searching for Kensington at:
