From Suspend State
1 Press your Power/Suspend/Resume button.
2 When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the password and press [Enter] button.
3 The notebook should resume normal operation.
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 notebook will resume normal operation. If no password (or an invalid one) is entered while
the system beeps, the system will return to its previous locked state (suspend or off) and the Security
Indicator will go off. To reactivate the notebook after a password failure, you must press the
Power/Suspend/Resume button, then enter a correct password.
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.
REMEMBER THE USER PASSWORD YOU SPECIFIED ON THE SECURITY PANEL APPLICATION. IF YOU
FORGET THE PASSWORD YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE YOUR COMPUTER. THE SUPERVISOR
PASSWORD CAN OVERRIDE THE USER PASSWORD.
