Precautions
Opening and Closing the Cover
Closing the cover automatically places the notebook into suspend mode. Opening the cover does not
automatically place the notebook into normal operation. Instead, you must enter the proper security
password after pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume button. This setting can be changed in the 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 whatsoever and doesn’t want to give
anybody the utility to set a password on their computer. In this case, if passwords (supervisor, user, or
both) are set, the passwords must first be cleared BEFORE removing the application. To clear passwords,
follow same 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.
