 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).

Though your computer is designed to function reliably in normal work environments, you need to use common sense in handling it. By following these important tips, you will get the most use and enjoyment out of your computer.

 Be careful about where and how you work.

• Do not eat or smoke over your keyboard. Particles that fall into your keyboard can cause damage.

• Store packing materials safely out of the reach of children to prevent the risk of suffocation from plastic bags.

• Keep your computer away from magnets, activated cellular phones, electrical appliances, or speakers (within 13 cm or 5 in).

• Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperatures (below 5°C/ 41°F or above 35°C/95°F).

• Some appliances, such as certain portable desktop fans or air purifiers, can produce negative ions. If a computer is close to such an appliance, and is exposed for an extended time to air containing negative ions, it may become electrostatically charged. Such a charge may be discharged through your hands when you touch the keyboard or other parts of the computer, or through connectors on I/O devices connected to it. Even though this kind of electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the opposite of a

S10-3 UserGuide V1.0_en.book Page 64 Tuesday, November 10, 2009 11:04 AM

Appendix B. Use, and care Information

discharge from your body or clothing to the computer, it poses the same risk of a computer malfunction.

Your computer is designed and manufactured to minimize any effects of electrostatic charge. An electrostatic charge above a certain limit, however, can increase the risk of ESD. Therefore, when using the computer close to an appliance that can produce negative ions, give special attention to the following:

- Avoid directly exposing your computer to the air from an appliance that can produce negative ions.

- Keep your computer and peripherals as far as possible from such an appliance.

- Wherever possible, ground your computer to facilitate safe electrostatic discharge.

 Notice of static-electricity

When you handle options or CRUs, or perform any work inside the computer, take the following precautions to avoid static-electricity damage:

- Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.

- Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters, memory modules, and other circuit boards by the edges. Never touch exposed circuitry.

- Prevent others from touching components.

S10-3 UserGuide V1.0_en.book Page 65 Tuesday, November 10, 2009 11:04 AM

Appendix B. Use, and care Information

- When you install a static-sensitive option or CRU, touch the staticprotective package containing the part to a metal expansion-slot cover or other unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least two seconds. This reduces static electricity in the package and your body.

- Whenever possible, remove the static-sensitive part from the staticprotective packaging and install the part without setting it down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective packaging on a smooth, level surface and place the part on it.

- Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.

 Be gentle with your computer

• Avoid placing any objects (including paper) between the display and the keyboard or under the keyboard.

• Do not drop, bump, scratch, twist, hit, vibrate, push, or place heavy objects on your computer, display, or external devices.

• Avoid turning the display beyond 130°.

 Usage environment and your health

Wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card and Bluetooth Daughter Card emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy like other radio devices. However, the level of energy emitted is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like for example mobile phones.

Due to the fact that wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card and Bluetooth Daughter Card operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, Lenovo believes the integrated wireless cards are safe for use by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and

S10-3 UserGuide V1.0_en.book Page 99 Tuesday, November 10, 2009 11:04 AM

Appendix E. Notices

result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.

In some situation or environment, the use of wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card or Bluetooth Daughter Card may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the organization. These situations may for example include:

• Using the integrated wireless cards on board of airplanes, or in hospitals

• In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful.

If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a specific organization (e.g., airport or hospital), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use wireless LAN PCI Express Mini Card or Bluetooth Daughter Card prior to turning on the computer.

 Safety information related to Mobile Broadband

Do not use the Mobile Broadband feature on your computer in highly flammable areas (e.g. gas station) or near blasting. Though it is rare, the Mobile Broadband module, like other cellular network devices, could generate a spark.

Avoid using Mobile Broadband feature outdoors during a thunderstorm.

S10-3 UserGuide V1.0_en.book Page 100 Tuesday, November 10, 2009 11:04 AM

Appendix E. Notices

Use of mobile devices on board aircraft is explicitly prohibited by many airlines companies, especially during take-off and landing. The built-in Mobile Broadband module on your computer is a low-power radio transceiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy which could cause interference with the operation of the airplane communication or navigation system. Refer to rules or regulations of your airline company for Mobile Broadband use. Never enable Mobile Broadband feature on your computer unless you are explicitly permitted to do so.

Follow restrictions when using your computer in hospitals. Some equipments in hospitals are sophisticated and are susceptible to electromagnetic interference. Do not enable Mobile Broadband feature near medical equipment without requesting permission.

The Mobile Broadband communication may affect the operation of implanted cardiac pacemakers and other medically implanted equipment. Patients with cardiac pacemakers should be well aware that use of Mobile Broadband feature on this computer may cause the implanted device to malfunction. If patients have any doubt that there is interference taking place, immediately disable the wireless radio on the computer and contact the doctor for more information.

The Mobile Broadband module embedded in your computer does not support voice calls, hence their use for essential communications is not possible. Therefore you should never rely upon the device for essential communications.

Notice on deleting data from your hard disk - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

As computers spread into every corner of life, they process more and more information. The data on your computer, some of it sensitive, is stored on a storage device called the hard disk. Before you dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer, you need to delete that data.

Handing your computer over to someone else without deleting the loaded software, such as operating systems and application software, may even violate License Agreements. You are advised to check the terms and conditions of those Agreements.

Deleting the data from the hard disk is not easy. There are methods that seem to delete the data:

• Move the data to the recycle bin, and then choose the Empty recycle bin command.

• Use the Delete command.

112

S10-3 UserGuide V1.0_en.book Page 113 Tuesday, November 10, 2009 11:04 AM

Appendix E. Notices

• Format your hard disk, using the software for initializing it.

• Using the preinstalled recovery program, bring the hard disk back to factory-ship state.

These operations, however, only change the file allocation of the data; they do not delete the data itself. In other words, the data retrieval processing is disabled under an operating system such as Windows. The data is still there, even though it seems to be lost. Thus, it is sometimes possible to read the data by use of special software for data recovery. There is a risk that people of bad faith may read and misuse the critical data on hard disks for unexpected purposes.

To prevent the leakage of data, it becomes very important that you take responsibility for deleting all the data from the hard disk when you dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer. You can destroy the data physically by smashing the hard disk with a hammer, or magnetically by means of strong magnetic power, thus making the data unreadable. But we recommend that you make use of the software (payware) or service (pay service) specifically developed for the purpose.
