CHAPTER 3 TABLET PC POWER MANAGEMENT 

3.1 About AC Adapter 

Our Tablet PC support one set of AC adapter and power code by country area. Please 

confirm with your dealer for appropriate power code if necessary.   

 

 

 
 

**Caution  

1.  When you disconnect the AC adapter, disconnect from the electrical outlet first and 

then from the tablet PC. A reverse procedure may damage the AC adapter or tablet 

PC. 

2.  Always hold the plug head when you unplug the connector, Never pull on the cord.   

3.  The AC adapter is designed for use with your tablet PC only. Connecting the AC 

adapter to another device can damage the adapter. 

 

The adapter operates on any voltage in the range of 100~240 V AC. The AC adapter 
serves as a converter from AC (Alternating Current) to DC (Direct Current) power 
because the tablet PC runs on DC power input, but an electrical outlet usually provides 
AC power. It also charges the battery pack when connected to AC power.
