Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Your Lenovo IdeaPad 1i comes pre-installed with Windows. Upon first boot, you will be guided through the initial setup process, which includes connecting to a Wi-Fi network, signing in with a Microsoft account, and configuring basic settings. Ensure the laptop is charged before starting.

Ensure any external devices are compatible with the Windows operating system.
Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to clean the screen and exterior. For stubborn smudges on the screen, use a slightly damp cloth (water only) and wipe gently. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
