word. Your system will not begin the boot sequence
without entering your supervisor/user password.

word and press Enter button.

tion.

word and press Enter button.

Incorrect Password Entry
If an invalid supervisor or user password is entered three
times in succession, the system will “beep” for about one
minute. If a valid password is entered within a minute
(while system beeps), the beeping will stop and the note-
book will resume normal operation. If no or an invalid
password is entered while the system beeps, the system
will return to its previous locked state (standby or off)
and the Security Indicator will go off. To reactivate the
notebook after a password failure, you must press the
Suspend/Resume button, then enter a correct password.
PRECAUTIONS
Opening and Closing the Cover
Closing the cover automatically places the notebook into
Standby mode. Opening the cover does not automati-
cally place the notebook into normal operation. Instead,
you must enter the proper security password after
pushing the Suspend/Resume button.
Low Battery Operations
If your LifeBook notebook has low battery, pushing the
suspend/resume button only turns on the Security Indi-
cator. Your notebook does not unlock, the Security Indi-
cator turns off after one minute. To resume normal
operation, first attach a power supply to the notebook.
Then you may unlock the notebook.
