IdeaTab K3011W Hardware Maintenance Manual
Passwords
As many as two passwords may be needed for any Lenovo IdeaTab computer:
the power-on password (POP) and the supervisor password (SVP).
If any of these passwords has been set, a prompt for it appears on the screen
whenever the computer is turned on. The computer does not start until the
password is entered.
Exception: If only an SVP is installed, the password prompt does not appear
when the operating system is booted.
Power-on password
A power-on password (POP) protects the system from being powered on by
an unauthorized person. The password must be entered before an operating
system can be booted.
Supervisor password
A supervisor password (SVP) protects the system information stored in the
BIOS Setup Utility. The user must enter the SVP in order to get access to the
BIOS Setup Utility and change the system conguration.
Attention: If the SVP has been forgotten and cannot be made available to
the servicer, there is no service procedure to reset the password. The system
board must be replaced for a scheduled fee.
