Welcome Screen
The first time you power on the computer, a Welcome screen appears. You can
either scan a configuration bar code or use the Wizard to manually set up the
computer. To learn more about how to Scan Bar Codes, see page 39.
During the manual setup process, follow the prompts on the screen as the wizard
has you:
• Set the default language.
• Set up the Wi-Fi network connections.
• Set the time, date, and time zone.
• Personalize (name) the computer.
• Set up security and privacy options.
• Once you complete the initial setup, the Welcome screen no longer appears
when you power on the computer and Provisioning mode is automatically
turned Off (disabled). Scanning a bar code to install applications, certificates,
configuration files, and licenses on the computer is restricted when
Provisioning mode is turned Off. To learn more About Provisioning Mode, see
page 69.
Unlock the Screen
The screen lock automatically activates every time the computer is turned On or
when the computer wakes from sleep mode.
• Swipe up from the lock icon at the bottom of the screen.
The level of security provided depends on the type of lock set (e.g., Swipe, Pattern,
PIN, or Password). The default setting, Swipe, provides no protection against
unauthorized access to your computer.
Change the Screen Lock to Protect the Computer
After you start using the computer, you should change the screen lock to prevent
unauthorized persons from accessing the computer after the screen lock activates
unless they input the correct password, pin, or pattern.
The recommended setting for the Screen lock is to enable a Password lock. Use a
strong password value (e.g., include numbers, characters, special characters, and
mix character case).
1. Swipe up from the bottom of the Home screen to access all apps.
2. Tap Settings > Security & location > Screen lock.
