Caring for the battery
To maximize the performance of the batteries, condition the battery once a month. To
condition it, run the tablet on battery power until the battery’s charge level drops below 20
percent. Then use AC power until it is fully charged.
For more information about batteries, see “Using the battery” on page 31.
Traveling with your tablet PC
Use the following tips when you travel with your tablet PC:
•
Put the tablet PC in a case to protect the display.
•
Protect the pen by keeping it in the pen storage drawer or in a case during travel.
•
Pack the tablet PC securely in a briefcase or hand-carried luggage and keep it separate
from toiletries, liquids and food. Do not pack it in checked luggage.
•
Before extended use in the field or long trips away from AC power, adjust the power
properties to maximize battery conservation. See “Selecting a power plan” on page 33.
•
For international travel, use the appropriate adapters for your destination’s electrical
outlets. You do not need to buy a voltage converter; the Motion AC adapter will
automatically adjust to different voltages.
•
You may want to carry proof of ownership or a merchandise passport when traveling
internationally.
•
Consult your insurance and credit card companies to learn about emergency travel
assistance in case your tablet PC becomes lost or disabled.
•
Do not carry your tablet through a metal detector.
•
Turn off the tablet PC or place it in
hibernation mode
for airplane takeoff and landing.
