Your notebook has several security features that you can use to secure your
system from unauthorised access.
This chapter explains how to use each function, and what the benefits are.
Please remember that in some cases, for example, forgetting your password,
you may be locked out and unable to access your data. Therefore,
please n ote the following information:
• Make regular backups to external da ta carriers such as external hard
drives, U SB memory modules, DVDs or Blu-ray Discs.
• Some security functio
ns need you to choose passwords. Make a note
of the passwords and ke

If you forget your passwords you will need to contact the our Service
Desk. Deletion or resetting of passwords is not covered by your warranty
and a charge will be made for assistance.
If you change the Password Severity s etting from Strong to Stringent in the Security
BIOS Se tup Utility menu, the Fujitsu Service Desk can no longer reset the password.
In this ca se, the system can remain permanently unusable.
Therefore, Fujitsu recommends to generally set up a supervisor password
with the setting Password Severity = Strong.
