When you turn the computer on, hold the option key. Boot into the Restore Partition, from there you can restore the OS.
 


ok thank u very much , i understood the general concept of recovery of Lion , as we all know the first installation of lion is getting through App Store account , the Lion is belong to the account owner or me, the machine user ?, For instance if i live booting problem with my Lion iinstallation, and i want to reinstall it from start up , from the boot installation of mac os x Snow Leopard old version, what will be the general procedure i will proceed?
