Setting a User Password

A User password can only be set if an Administrator password has
already been set.

If you have set both an Administrator password and a User password,
and you enter the Setup program by using the User password, you are

your password twice. Save your changes when you exit the Setup
program by selecting Exit, then Save and Exit.
