Notes
Dear user,
Thank you for purchasing your new Lenovo notebook computer!
Before using this product, make sure to read this user guide carefully.
We are pleased that you have chosen Lenovo for your mobile computing
needs. To help you master the usage of your new computer quickly, we
have prepared this user guide. In this manual you will find information on
the system configuration, basic operating instructions, and important
notices. We have done our best to avoid any errors in making sure that the
information provided in this manual is accurate and reliable. However, due
to the short length of the user guide it is impossible to cover all topics in
great depth. For this reason, we apologize for any omissions you might
find.
Lenovo is always trying to improve the performance and reliability of its
products. For that reason, the hardware and software components shown
within the user guide might not perfectly match those of your system.
However, any inconsistencies between what is described in the user guide
and the operations of your computer should not substantially affect your
use. Lenovo apologizes for any inconvenience that this issue might cause.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Dear user,
While using your computer, you may find that the nominal hard disk
capacity indicated is somewhat different from the disk capacity
displayed by the operating system. For example, a nominal 40GB hard
disk will appear as less than 40GB in the operating system. This
discrepancy is not an error in hard disk installation nor any other
problem, but a normal phenomenon of computers. This phenomenon is
primarily due to the following reasons:
Hard disk manufacturers use a radix of 1000, i.e., 1G = 1,000MB, 1MB =
1,000KB, 1KB = 1,000 bytes. However, when identifying hard disk capacity,
operating systems use a radix of 1024, i.e., 1GB = 1,024MB, 1MB = 1,024KB,
1KB = 1,024 bytes. The standard adopted by your computer is that of the
hard disk manufacturers. Since the standards adopted by the hard disk
manufacturer and operating system are different, the hard disk capacity
displayed by the operating system will be different from the nominal hard
disk capacity.
For example, if the hard disk is nominally X G, even when it is completely
empty, the capacity displayed by the operating system will be:
X × 1000 × 1000 × 1000/ (1024 × 1024 × 1024) ≈ X × 0.931 G
In addition, if a portion of the hard disk space has been used for some
specific purpose, then the capacity indicated by the operating system will
be even less than X × 0.931 G.
Lenovo computers may come with preinstalled OneKey Rescue System, so
the hard disk has a special portion partitioned before delivery, which is
used to store hard disk mirror and OneKey Rescue System program files.
The size of the reserved space for this partition varies according to the
model, operating system and software of the computer. For the sake of
safety, this partition is not apparent, which is commonly referred to as a
“hidden partition”.
In addition, after the hard disk is partitioned or formatted, the system will
assign a certain amount of hard disk space for the system files.
For the above reasons, the available hard disk space indicated by the
operating system is always less than the computer’s nominal hard disk
capacity.

• Creating a user account
Putting your computer into sleep state or shutting it down
When you finish working with your computer, you can put it into sleep
state or shut it down.
Putting your computer into sleep state
If you will be away from your computer for only a short time, put the

13
You can determine the percentage of battery power remaining by using
Windows Power Options.
When you find that the battery power is low, you need to charge the
battery or replace it with a fully charged one.
The battery is charged when the AC adapter is connected to the computer
and the battery is installed.
Charging time will depend on the usage environment.
You need to charge the battery in any of the following situations:
• When you purchase a new battery.
• If the battery status indicator turns amber.
• If the battery has not been used for a long time.
As each computer user has different habits and needs, it is difficult to predict
how long a battery charge will last. There are two main factors:
• The amount of energy stored in the battery when you commence work.
• The way you use your computer: for example, how often you access the
hard disk drive and how bright you make the computer display.
14
If you are not going to use the computer for an extended period of time, or
if you need to send your computer to Lenovo for service, etc. remove the
battery pack from the computer.
Before removing the battery pack, make sure the computer has been shut
down.
You are advised to insert the battery pack when using your computer to prevent
small particles from entering the inside of your computer.
To increase the life of the battery pack, the computer does not start recharging
the battery immediately after it drops from fully charged.
Charge the battery at a temperature between 50 °F and 80 °F (10 °C-30 °C).
Full charge or discharge is not required.
To protect the computer system, we advise you not to insert or remove the
battery when the computer is on.

Introduction
The Lenovo OneKey Rescue System is an easy-to-use application that can
be used to back up the data on your system partition (C drive) for easy
restore when required. You can run Lenovo OneKey Recovery under the
Windows operating system, and the OneKey Rescue System without
starting the Windows operating system.
Attention:
In order to utilize the features of the OneKey Rescue System, your hard
disk already includes a hidden partition by default to store the system
image file and OneKey Rescue System program files. This default partition
is hidden for security reasons and is the reason the available disk space is
less than it claims. The exact available hard disk space depends on the file
size of the mirror image file (based on the size of operating system and
pre-installed software).
