Note:

For the user-installable wireless module, ensure that you use only a Lenovo-authorized wireless

® 

label: 

Your computer might have a Genuine Microsoft label affixed to its 

cover depending on the following factors: 

• Your geographic location

• Date when your computer was manufactured

• Version of Windows 10 that is preinstalled

Go to 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/howtotell/Hardware.aspx

for illustrations of the various types of 

Genuine Microsoft labels. 

• In the People’s Republic of China, the Genuine Microsoft label is required on all computer models

preinstalled with any version of Windows 10.

• In other countries and regions, the Genuine Microsoft label is required only on computer models licensed

for Windows 10 Pro.

The absence of a Genuine Microsoft label does not indicate that the preinstalled Windows version is not 
genuine. For details on how to tell whether your preinstalled Windows product is genuine, refer to the 
information provided by Microsoft at:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/howtotell/default.aspx

There are no external, visual indicators of the Product ID or Windows version for which the computer is 
licensed. Instead, the Product ID is recorded in the computer firmware. Whenever a Windows 10 product is 
installed, the installation program checks the computer firmware for a valid, matching Product ID to complete 
the activation.
