You may change or remove the supervisor or user password by repeating the steps defined
above.
The security lock feature is in effect both when the system resumes from Off or suspend
state. You 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 password.
❑
From Off State
1. Turn on your system.
2. When the Security Indicator flashes, enter the password and press Enter button. For example,
if the password is 22222, Press Button Number 2 five times and press Enter button.
The LifeBook will boot to 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 LifeBook will resume normal operation. If no 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 after a password failure, you
must press the Suspend/Resume button, then enter a correct password.
