Safety information Safety information The following section presents the safety inform ation that you need to be fam iliar with before servicing an IBM mobile com puter General safety Follow these rules to ensure general safety: • Observe good housekeeping in the area of the machines during and after m aintenance.
A tte n tio n : An electrical shock can occur only when there is a complete circuit. By observing the above rule, you may prevent a current from passing through your body. ThinkPad R40...
This guide addresses only those item s. You should use good judgm ent to identify potential safety hazards due to attachm ent of non-IBM features or options not covered by this inspection guide. Introduction...
Insulation m ust not be frayed or worn. Remove the cover. Check for any obvious non-IBM alterations. Use good judgm ent as to the safety of any non-IBM alterations. Check inside the unit for any obvious unsafe conditions, such as metal filings, contam ination, w ater or other liquids, or signs of fire or sm oke damage.
Safety information dam age by equalizing the charge so that the machine, the part, the w ork mat, and the person handling the part are all at the same charge. N otes Use product-specific ESD procedures when they exceed the requirements noted here. Make sure that the ESD protective devices you use have been certified (ISO 9000) as fully effective.

Supervisor password: A supervisor password (SVP) protects the system inform ation stored in the IBM BIOS Setup Utility. The SVP must be entered in order to get access to the IBM BIOS Setup Utility and make changes to system configuration settings.
If U ser o n ly m ode is selected and the user HDP has been forgotten and cannot be m ade available to the servicer, IBM does not provide any services to reset the user HDPs or to recover data from the hard-disk drive.
Screen blank mode has three variants, as follows: If you press Fn+F3, or the time set on the “ LCD off tim er” in IBM BIOS Setup Utility expires, • The LCD backlight turns off. • The hard-disk drive m otor stops.
NTFS, you cannot create a hibernation file. If you want to use hibernation mode, you will need to reinstall W indows NT with FAT format. In hibernation mode, the following occurs: • The system status, RAM, VRAM, and setup data are stored on the hard disk. ThinkPad R40...

Related service information • The system is powered off. N ote: If the com puter enters the hibernation mode while it is docked to the docking station, do not undock it from the docking station before resuming normal operation. If you do undock it and then try to resume normal operation, you will get an error m essage, and you will have to restart the system.
For some possible configurations of the computer, PC-Doctor m ight not run correctly. To avoid this problem, you need to initialize the com puter setup by use of the IBM BIOS Setup Utility before you run PC-Doctor. On the IBM BIOS Setup Utility screen, press F9, Enter, F10, and then Enter.
