in the manual, but it will not substantially affect your use.
Thanks for your cooperation!
Explanation of hard disk capacity
Dear user,
While using your computer, you may find that the nominal hard disk capacity indicated is
somewhat different from the disk capacity displayed by the operating system. For example, a
nominal 40GB hard disk will appear as less than 40GB in the operating system. This
discrepancy is not an error in hard disk installation nor any other problem, but a normal
phenomenon of computers. This phenomenon is primarily due to the following reasons:
I. Different standards used by the manufacturer and operating system when
calculating hard disk capacity
Hard disk manufacturers use a radix of 1000, i.e., 1G = 1,000MB, 1MB = 1,000KB,
1KB = 1,000 bytes. However, when identifying hard disk capacity, operating systems use a radix
of 1024, i.e. 1GB = 1,024MB, 1MB = 1,024KB, 1KB = 1,024 bytes. The standard adopted by your
computer is that of the hard disk manufacturers. Since the standards adopted by the hard disk
manufacturer and operating system are different, the hard disk capacity displayed by the
operating system will be different from the nominal hard disk capacity.
For example, if the hard disk is nominally X G, even when it is completely empty, the capacity
displayed by the operating system will be:
X × 1000 × 1000 × 1000/ (1024 × 1024 × 1024) X × 0.931 G
In addition, if a portion of the hard disk space has been used for some specific purpose, then the
capacity indicated by the operating system will be even less than X × 0.931 G.
II. A portion of the hard disk space is used for specific purposes
Lenovo computers may come with preinstalled OneKey Rescue System, so the hard disk has a
special portion partitioned before delivery, which is used to store hard disk mirror and OneKey
Rescue System program files. The size of the reserved space for this partition varies according to
the model, operating system and software of the computer. For the sake of safety, this partition is
not apparent, which is commonly referred to as a “hidden partition”.
In addition, after the hard disk is partitioned or formatted, the system will assign a certain
amount of hard disk space for the system files.
For the above reasons, the available hard disk space indicated by the operating system is
always less than the computers nominal hard disk capacity.

Chapter 2. Learning the basics
Putting your computer into sleep state or shutting it down
When you finish working with your computer, you can put it into sleep state or shut it down.
Putting your computer into sleep state
If you will be away from your computer for only a short time, put the computer into sleep state.
When the computer is in sleep state, you can quickly wake it to resume use, and bypass the
startup process.
To put the computer into sleep state, do one of the following.
Click and select Sleep from the Start menu.
Press Fn + F1.
Attention:
Wait until the power indicator light starts blinking (indicating that the computer is in sleep state)
before you move your computer. Moving your computer while the hard disk is spinning can
damage the hard disk, causing loss of data.
To wake the computer, do one of the following.
Press the power button.
Press any key on the keyboard.
Shutting down your computer
If you are not going to use your computer for a day or two, shut it down.
To shut down your computer, click and select Shut Down from the Start menu.

Checking battery status
You can determine the percentage of battery power remaining by using Windows Power
Options.
Charging the battery
When you find that the battery power is low, you need to charge the battery or replace it with a
fully charged one.
The battery is charged when the AC adapter is connected to the computer and the battery is
installed.
Charging time will depend on the usage environment.
You need to charge the battery in any of the following situations:
When you purchase a new battery
If the battery status indicator starts blinking
If the battery has not been used for a long time
Removing the battery pack
If you are not going to use the computer for an extended period of time, or if you need to send
your computer to Lenovo for service, etc. remove the battery pack from the computer. Before
removing the battery pack, make sure the computer has been shut down.
Note: As each computer user has different habits and needs, it is difficult to predict how long a battery
charge will last. There are two main factors:
The amount of energy stored in the battery when you commence work.
The way you use your computer: for example, how often you access the hard disk drive and how
bright you make the computer display.
Notes:
You are advised to insert the battery pack when using your computer to prevent small particles from
entering the inside of your computer.
To increase the life of the battery pack, the computer does not start recharging the battery immediately
after it drops from fully charged.
Charge the battery at a temperature between 50 °F and 80 °F (10 °C-30 °C).
Full charge or discharge is not required.
