create additional limited user accounts by operating step 8.

z When sharing this computer with multiple users, we recommend set-
ting a password for your own account.
z When setting password, click the account for which you will set the
password, click [Create a password], and the password following the
onscreen instructions, and click [Create Password].
• Remember the password you have set.
It is useful to input a hint in
[password hint] in case you forget your password. In addition, we rec-
ommend that you create a password reset disk beforehand (Î page
23).
Refer to “When administrator password is forgotten” (Î page 23) in
“Dealing with Problems (Summary).”
E Click [start] - [Turn Off Computer] - [Restart] to restart the computer.
F At the Welcome screen, click the created user (user icon) to log-on.
z If the password has been set, enter the password and click . You
cannot operate the computer until the proper password is entered.
Confirm that character input is not set to "Caps Lock" or "NumLk."

z Note also that only the added user account will be displayed in the Wel-
come screen. The account for the administrator created during Win-
dows setup will not be displayed.
NOTE
z If the characters or icons on the screen are too small and difficult to see:
A Click [start] - [All Programs] - [Panasonic].
B Click [Icon Enlarger], and click [Large Size] or [Extra Large Size], and click
[OK].
This will allow you to magnify the display of characters and icons on the screen.
z The [Icon Enlarger] can be set separately for each account.
