Taking Care of the Tablet PC
Location Guidelines
•
For optimal performance, use the Tablet
PC where the recommended temperature
is between 0 °C (32 °F) and 55 °C (131 °F) –
actual operating temperature depending
on product specifications.
•
Avoid placing the Tablet PC in a location
subject to high humidity, extreme tempe-
ratures, mechanical vibration, direct sun-
light, or heavy dust. Using in extreme
environments for long periods can result
in product deterioration and a shortened
product life.
•
Operating in an environment with metallic
dust is not allowed.
•
Place the Tablet PC on a flat and steady
surface. Do not stand the Tablet PC on its
side or store it in an upside-down
position. A strong impact by dropping or
hitting may damage the Tablet PC.
•
Do not cover or block any ventilation
openings on the Tablet PC. For example,
do not place the Tablet PC on a bed, sofa,
rug, or other similar surface. Otherwise,
overheating may occur that results in
damage to the Tablet PC.
•
As the Tablet PC can become very hot
during operation, keep it away from
objects that are vulnerable to heat.
•
Keep the Tablet PC at least 13 cm (5 inches)
away from electrical appliances that can
generate a strong magnetic field such as a
TV, refrigerator, motor, or a large audio
speaker.
•
Avoid moving the Tablet PC abruptly from
a cold to a warm place. A temperature
difference of more than 10 °C (18 °F) may
cause condensation inside the unit, which
may damage the storage media.
General Guidelines
•
Do not place heavy objects on top of the
Tablet PC as this may damage the display.
•
To avoid damaging the screen, do not
touch it with any sharp object.
•
LCD image sticking occurs when a fixed
pattern is displayed on the screen for a
prolonged period of time. You can avoid
the problem by limiting the amount of
static content on the display. It is recom-
mended that you use a screen saver or
turn off the display when it is not in use.
•
To maximize the life of the backlight in
the display, allow the backlight to auto-
matically turn off as a result of power
management.
Cleaning Guidelines
•
Never clean the Tablet PC with its power on.
•
Use a soft cloth moistened with water or
a non-alkaline detergent to wipe the
exterior of the Tablet PC.
•
Gently wipe the display with a soft, lint-
free cloth.
•
If water or liquid is split onto the Tablet PC,
wipe it dry and clean when possible. Though
your Tablet PC is water-proof, do not leave
the Tablet PC wet when you can dry it.
•
If the Tablet PC gets wet where the tem-
perature is 0 °C (32 °F) or below, freeze
damage may occur. Make sure to dry the
wet Tablet PC.
Battery Pack Guidelines
•
To charge the battery, connect the AC
adapter to the Tablet PC and an electrical
outlet. The Battery Indicator (
Tablet PC glows amber to indicate that
charging is in progress. When the battery is
fully charged, the Battery Charge Indicator
glows green.
•
Recharge the battery pack when it is nearly
discharged. When recharging, make sure
that the battery pack is fully charged.
Doing so may avoid harm to the battery
pack.
•
The battery pack is a consumable product
and the following conditions will shorten
its life:
– when frequently charging the battery
pack
– when using, charging, or storing the
battery in high temperature condition
•
To avoid hastening the deterioration of
the battery pack thereby prolonging its
useful life, minimize the number of times
you charge it so as not to frequently
increase its internal temperature.
