OPERATING YOUR LIFEBOOK SECURITY
APPLICATION PANEL

The security lock feature is in effect both when the system
resumes from OFF or suspend state. You would always
need to push the Suspend /Resume button to input the
user password. Your system will not begin the boot
sequence without entering your supervisor/user pass-
word.

From Off State

1. Turn on your system.

2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the pass-

word and press Enter button.

For example, if the password is 22222,
Press Button Number 2 five times and press Enter
button.

The LifeBook notebook will boot to normal opera-
tion.

From Suspend State

1. Press your Suspend/Resume button.

2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the pass-

word and press Enter button.

The LifeBook 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 Life-
Book notebook will resume normal operation. If no
password or an invalid password 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 LifeBook notebook after a
password failure, you must press the Suspend/Resume
button, then enter a correct password.

PRECAUTIONS

Opening and Closing the Cover

Closing the cover may place 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
Suspend/Resume button.

Low Battery Operations

If your LifeBook notebook has a low battery, pushing
the suspend/resume button only turns on the Security
Indicator. Your notebook does not unlock, and the
Security Indicator LED turns off after one minute. To
resume normal operation, first attach a power supply to
the LifeBook notebook. Then you may unlock the note-
book.

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 feature.
