Setting password protection on wakeup To set the computer to prompt for a password when the computer exits Sleep or Hibernation, follow these steps: 1. From the Start screen, type power, select Settings, and then select Power Options from the list of applications. 2. In the left pane, click Require a password on wakeup. 3. Click Change Settings that are currently unavailable. 4. Click Require a password (recommended). NOTE: If you need to create a user account password or change your current user account password, click Create or change your user account password, and then follow the onscreen instructions. If you do not need to create or change a user account password, go to step 5. 5. Click Save changes. Using the power meter and power settings The power meter is located on the Windows desktop. The power meter allows you to quickly access power settings and view the remaining battery charge. ● To display the percentage of remaining battery charge and the current power plan, on the Windows desktop, point over the power meter icon. ● To use Power Options, click the power meter icon and select an item from the list. From the Start screen, type power, select Settings, and then select Power Options. Different power meter icons indicate whether the computer is running on battery or external power. The icon also displays a message if the battery has reached a low or critical battery level. Running on battery power When a charged battery is in the tablet and the tablet is not plugged into external power, the tablet runs on battery power. If the tablet has a charged battery installed and the AC adapter is disconnected from the tablet, the tablet automatically switches to battery power and the display brightness decreases to conserve battery life. The battery in the tablet slowly discharges when the tablet is off and unplugged from external power. When the tablet is attached to the keyboard dock, the system is powered by the keyboard dock's battery until the battery reaches a critical level in the keyboard dock. At that time, the system switches to the tablet's battery. Computer battery life varies, depending on power management settings, programs running on the computer, display brightness, external devices connected to the tablet, and other factors. NOTE: There is a secondary battery in the keyboard dock. When the tablet is attached to the keyboard dock, the system is powered by the keyboard dock's battery. Factory-sealed battery To monitor the status of your battery, or if the battery is no longer holding a charge, run Battery Check in HP Support Assistant. To access battery information, from the Start screen, type support, select the HP Support Assistant app, and then select Battery and performance. If Battery Check indicates that your battery should be replaced, contact support. Setting password protection on wakeup 45
