Notes: To maximize the life of the battery:
• Use the battery until the charge is depleted and recharge the battery completely before using it. Once the
battery is fully charged, it must discharge to 94% or lower before it will be allowed to recharge again.
• The battery may optimize its full charge capacity based on your usage. After prolonged periods of limited
use, full battery capacity may not be available until you discharge to as low as 20% and recharge
completely. For more information, refer to the power section of the Vantage app.

• When no ac power is available:
Note: The remaining battery power of computer A should be at least 30% and be 3% higher than that of
computer B.
• When ac power is available:
Note: The actual charging speed of your computer depends on many factors, such as the remaining battery
power of the computers, the wattage of the ac power adapter, and whether you are using the computers.

UEFI BIOS passwords
You can set passwords in UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) to
strengthen the security of your computer.
Password types
You can set a power-on password, supervisor password, system management password, or NVMe
password in UEFI BIOS to prevent unauthorized access to your computer. However, you are not prompted to
enter any UEFI BIOS password when your computer resumes from sleep mode.
Power-on password
If you set a power-on password, a window is displayed on the screen when you turn on the computer. Enter
the correct password to use the computer.
34 T14 Gen 2, T15 Gen 2, P14s Gen 2, and P15s Gen 2 User Guide
Supervisor password
The supervisor password protects the system information stored in UEFI BIOS. When entering the UEFI
BIOS menu, enter the correct supervisor password in the window prompted. You also can press Enter to
skip the password prompt. However, you cannot change most of the system configuration options in UEFI
BIOS.
If you have set both the supervisor password and power-on password, you can use the supervisor password
to access your computer when you turn it on. The supervisor password overrides the power-on password.
System management password
The system management password can also protect the system information stored in UEFI BIOS like a
supervisor password, but it has lower authority by default. The system management password can be set
through the UEFI BIOS menu or through Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) with the Lenovo
client-management interface.
You can enable the system management password to have the same authority as the supervisor password
to control security-related features. To customize the authority of the system management password through
the UEFI BIOS menu:
1. Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press F1 to enter the UEFI BIOS menu.
2. Select Security ➙ Password ➙ System Management Password Access Control.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
If you have set both the supervisor password and the system management password, the supervisor
password overrides the system management password. If you have set both the system management
password and the power-on password, the system management password overrides the power-on
password.
NVMe passwords
The NVMe password prevents unauthorized access to the data on the storage drive. When an NVMe
password is set, you are prompted to type a correct password each time you try to access the storage drive.
• Single Password
When a Single NVMe password is set, the user must enter the user NVMe password to access files and
applications on the storage drive.
• Dual Password (User + Admin)
The admin NVMe password is set and used by a system administrator. It enables the administrator to
access any storage drive in a system or any computer connected in the same network. The administrator
can also assign a user NVMe password for each computer in the network. The user of the computer can
change the user NVMe password as desired, but only the administrator can remove the user NVMe
password.
When prompted to enter an NVMe password, press F1 to switch between the admin NVMe password and
user NVMe password.
Notes: The NVMe password is not available in the following situations:
• A Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Opal-compliant storage drive and a TCG Opal management software
program are installed in the computer, and the TCG Opal management software program is activated.
• For Intel models, when an eDrive storage drive is installed in the computer preinstalled with the Windows
10 operating system.

password), Lenovo cannot reset your passwords or recover data from the storage drive. You can contact a
Lenovo authorized service provider to have the storage drive replaced. A fee will be charged for parts and
service. If the storage drive is a CRU (Customer Replaceable Unit), you can also contact Lenovo to purchase
a new storage drive to replace the old one by yourself. To check whether the storage drive is a CRU and the

Error: The non-volatile system
UEFI variable storage is nearly
full.
Note:
This error indicates that the operating system or programs cannot create, modify,
or delete data in the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage due to insufficient
storage space after POST.
The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is used by the UEFI BIOS and by
the operating system or programs. This error occurs when the operating system
or programs store large amounts of data in the variable storage. All data needed
for POST, such as UEFI BIOS setup settings, chipset, or platform configuration
data, are stored in a separate UEFI variable storage.
Press F1 after the error message is displayed to enter the UEFI BIOS menu. A
dialog asks for confirmation to clean up the storage. If you select “Yes”, all data
that were created by the operating system or programs will be deleted except
global variables defined by the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface
Specification. If you select “No”, all data will be kept, but the operating system or
programs will not be able to create, modify, or delete data in the storage.
If this error happens at a service center, Lenovo authorized service personnel will
clean up the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage using the preceding
solution.
Fan error. Press ESC to startup
with limited performance.
The thermal fan might not work correctly. After the error message is displayed,
press ESC within five seconds to start up the computer with limited performance.
Otherwise, the computer will shut down immediately. If the problem still exists
when you starts up next time, have your computer serviced.

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 edition of the Windows operating system.
• In other countries and regions, the Genuine Microsoft label is required only on computer models licensed
for Windows Pro editions.
The absence of a Genuine Microsoft label does not indicate that the preinstalled Windows version is not
