Using the Proximity Lock Feature

When your phone is connected as a proximity device and the phone is moved out of range, a

You can take the following actions:

• Allow the computer to lock automatically after 10 seconds.

While the phone is out of range, the proximity feature remains enabled but inactive. If the phone is

If the phone is not in range when you unlock the computer, a notification displays for 10 seconds that
offers the same options shown in the figure.
