Locking the computer cover helps prevent unauthorized access to the inside of your computer. Your computer features a padlock loop so that the computer cover cannot be removed when a padlock is installed.
You can use a Kensington-style cable lock to secure your computer to a desk, table, or other nonpermanent fixture. The cable lock connects to the security-lock slot at the rear of your computer. Depending on the type selected, the cable lock can be operated with a key or combination. The cable lock also locks the buttons used to open the computer cover. This is the same type of lock used with many notebook computers. You can order such a cable lock directly from Lenovo by searching for Kensington at: http://www.lenovo.com/support.
A cable lock can be used to secure devices, such as the keyboard and the mouse, by locking the device cables to the computer. The cable lock connects to the cable-lock slots on the rear of the computer.
To install a cable lock, do the following:
Insert the clip 1 into the cable-lock slot 4.
Pull the cables you want to lock through the dents in the cable lock.
Press the clip 2 into the cable-lock slot 3 until it snaps into position.
