Avoid constant body contact with specific hot sections
CAUTION: When the computer is operating, it should be placed on a hard and flat surface with its bottom area not in contact with user's bare skin. Under normal operating conditions, the temperature of the bottom surface will remain within an acceptable range as defined in IEC 62368-1, but such temperatures can still be high enough to cause discomfort or harm to the user if directly touched for over one minute at a time. As such, it is recommended that users avoid prolonged direct contact with the bottom of the computer.
Note: Some Lenovo computers include a display that can be rotated 360 degrees. When those products are used as a tablet computer, the temperatures of all the accessible parts are within an acceptable range as defined in IEC 62368-1.
Air vents (intake)
The air vents allow air to be sucked inside of the PC to cool the internal components.
Important: When the PC is operating, do not place it on a bed, sofa, carpet, or other flexible surfaces. Otherwise, the air vents will be blocked and the PC may overheat, reducing performance or causing the PC to be unresponsive or even shut down.
Novo button hole
When the PC is powered off, you can press the Novo button to display the Novo button menu. From the menu, you can then choose to:
· Open the firmware setup utility · Display the boot device selection menu · Display the Windows advanced startup options page

Rechargeable battery pack
Your computer includes a built-in, rechargeable battery pack that makes mobile computing a reality. When the computer is plugged into an electrical outlet, the battery charges. If you use the computer when you don't have access to an electrical outlet, the battery discharges to supply electricity that the computer system requires for operation.

You can charge the battery any time you want. The battery packs of Lenovo computers support multiple charging modes that are suitable for different power usage habits. You can switch the battery's active charging mode in Lenovo Vantage, Lenovo PC Manager, or Lenovo Smart Engine.

Battery charging is also affected by its temperature. The recommended temperature range for charging the battery is between 10°C (50°F) and 35°C (95°F).
Note:
You can check the battery temperature in Lenovo Vantage. To maximize the life of the battery, once the battery is fully charged, it must discharge to 94% or lower before it will be allowed to recharge again.

Normal mode
Normal mode is the most basic charging mode. In normal mode, it typically takes 2 to 4 hours for the battery to charge from 0% to 100%.

Rapid charge mode
If you want the battery to be charged faster than in normal mode, switch the battery charging to rapid charge mode. The following table lists the typical time needed for batteries in rapid charge mode to be charged to 80% and 100% respectively.

Table 6. Reference charge time for batteries in rapid charge mode

Mode

Time needed to charge from 0% to 80%

Rapid charge

Less than 1 hour

Time needed to charge from 0% to 100% Less than 2 hours

Conservation mode
If your computer is constantly plugged into an electrical outlet, consider switching the battery charging to conservation mode. In conservation mode, the battery will not be fully charged. Instead, the battery's charge will be kept within 75%80%. This is beneficial to the long-term health of the battery.
Note: If you want the battery to be fully charged before bringing the computer to work, disable conservation mode by switching the battery charging to normal or rapid charge mode.
Overnight charge optimization
Some people follow a regular pattern when using their computers. They finish their workday with the computer at a low battery charge level. They plug in their computers at night and need the battery to be fully charged the next morning so they can unplug the computer and bring it to work. These activities happen at approximately the same time each day. If this sounds like you, consider enabling overnight charge optimization for the battery.
Overnight charge optimization affects battery charging during the night hours, the time when you're usually asleep. When it is enabled, the computer regularly adapts its charging behavior based on observation of when you plug in the computer at night and unplug it in the morning. During the nighttime, the battery is charged to a particular range and is kept within that range for an extended period, before being further

charged to 100%. Overnight charge optimization ensures safe charging during the night and is beneficial to the long-term health of the battery.
Note: With overnight charge optimization enabled, if you break your routine one day by unplugging the computer much earlier than usual in the morning, you may find that the battery is not fully charged.

If the battery pack of your computer supports overnight charge optimization, it can be enabled in Lenovo Vantage or Lenovo PC Manager.

Recover full battery capacity
