The always-on connector can charge external devices when the
computer is turned off, in sleep or hibernation mode. The always-on
function can be turned on or off in the UEFI/BIOS setup utility.
Note: If Lenovo Vantage is pre-installed on your computer, you can
also set always-on function within that software.
Note: If a receiver for a wireless device (such as a mouse or an external keyboard) is connected to one of the
USB type-A port, a connected USB device (such as a USB dock or hub) to the other USB type-A port may
cause interference with the receiver. Under certain circumstances, you may experience delays or even loss
of connection with the wireless device. In such cases, place and use the wireless device as near to the
receiver as possible. Alternatively, you may purchase and use a USB extension cable to connect the receiver
to the computer.
