Updating your system UEFI BIOS

The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) BIOS is a part of the system programs that make up
the basic layer of software built into your tablet. The UEFI BIOS translates the instructions from other
software layers.
Your tablet system board has a module called EEPROM, also referred to as flash memory. You can update
the UEFI BIOS and the ThinkPad Setup program by starting your tablet with a flash update optical disc or
flash update application running in the Windows environment.
In some instances when you add software, hardware, or a device driver, you might be informed that you
need to update your UEFI BIOS in order for the new addition to work properly.
To update your UEFI BIOS, go to the following Web site and follow the instructions on the screen:

Using system management

This section is intended primarily for network administrators.
Your tablet is designed for manageability, so that you can redirect more of your resources to better meet
your business objectives.
This manageability, or "Total Cost of Ownership" (TCO), enables you to remotely operate client tablets in
the same way as you operate your own tablet, such as turning on a client tablet, formatting hard disk
drive, and installing software.
