2. Turn your computer off and then on again.
3. When prompted, swipe your nger over the reader.
4. On request, type your power-on password, your hard disk password, or both. The enrolled ngerprint is
now associated with your power-on password, your hard disk password, or both.

reader once.

down your password, and keep it in a safe place. If you forget it and for some reason you cannot swipe your
nger across the reader—for example, if you injure that nger, you cannot start the computer or change the
password. If you forget your power-on password, you must take your computer to a Lenovo authorized
servicer or a marketing representative to have the password canceled.If you forget your hard disk password,
Lenovo cannot reset your password or recover data from the hard disk. You must take your computer to
