Back view

The documentation camera is located on the back of the CL900.

Where to begin with your CL900

The CL900 is self-contained, so you can start using it immediately. Here are some steps you

can follow to power up and get familiar with your CL900.

OTE

We often use the term “tap” to refer to selecting on the tablet PC.

Step 1: Plug in the power adapter

1. Plug the power cord into the power adapter of the CL900 tablet, then plug the power

cord into an outlet. Keep the tablet on AC power until the battery is fully charged.

2. Press the power button on the left side to turn on the CL900.

3. The first time you log in, Windows Setup may appear. Follow the instructions to set up

your user account.

OTE

Press the Security button on the left side to lock or unlock your tablet—it’s equivalent to
Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
