Note:
This error indicates that the operating system or programs cannot create, modify,
or delete data in the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage due to insufficientstorage space after POST.

Error: The non-volatile system
UEFI variable storage is nearlyfull.

The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is used by the UEFI BIOS and by
the operating system or programs. This error occurs when the operating systemor programs store large amounts of data in the variable storage. All data needed
for POST, such as UEFI BIOS setup settings, chipset, or platform configuration
data, are stored in a separate UEFI variable storage.
Tap the screen after the error message is displayed, and follow the on-screen
instructions to enter the UEFI BIOS menu. A dialog asks for confirmation to clean
up the storage. If you select “Yes”, all data that were created by the operating
system or programs will be deleted except global variables defined by the Unified
Extensible Firmware Interface Specification. If you select “No”, all data will be
kept, but the operating system or programs will not be able to create, modify, ordelete data in the storage.
If this error happens at a service center, Lenovo authorized service personnel willclean up the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage using the preceding
solution.
