Precautions
Opening and Closing the Cover
Closing the cover automatically places the notebook into suspend mode. Opening it does not place the
notebook into normal operation automatically. Instead, you must enter the proper security password after
pushing the power/suspend/resume button. The setting can be changed in Power Options Control Panel.
Low Battery Operations
If your LifeBook notebook has low battery, pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume button only turns on the
Security Indicator. Your notebook does not unlock, the Security Indicator turns off after one minute. To
resume normal operation, first attach a power supply to the notebook. Then you may unlock the notebook.
Uninstalling the Security Panel Application
You have two options when uninstalling the security panel application:
• Uninstall the security panel application software. This will disable all security features.
• Uninstall the security panel application with password still active. This will not allow any changes
to the password.
Uninstalling the Security Panel Application
Remove passwords when the User wants no password protection and doesn't want to give anybody the
ability to set a password on their computer. In this case, if any passwords are set, they must first be cleared
BEFORE removing the application. To clear passwords, follow procedure in "Setting Passwords" except
this time, select [Remove], enter current password then click [Next]. When asked to confirm, select [Yes].
Removing Security Panel Application with Passwords Still Active
Using this feature will not allow any changes to the password. Depending upon your operating system,
the procedures differ slightly, as noted below.
