FAQS How long will the battery stay charged?
This can vary according how you’re using the Tablet PC, but a new, fully
charged standard Motion 6-cell battery can last about 4 hours.
Can I make the battery charge last longer?
• Change to the Max Battery power scheme (right-click on the Power/
Battery icon in the system tray—located in the lower-right corner of
the display window—and tap Adjust Power Properties; under Power
schemes, tap Max Battery). The Tablet PC comes with Motion
Computing Optimized as the default power scheme.
• Turn on the Ambient Light Sensor on the Motion Dashboard. This will
dim the display automatically (when possible) and save battery power.
• Dim the display brightness by opening the Motion Dashboard and
moving the Display Brightness slider. (You can also double-tap on the
Tablet and Pen Settings icon in the system tray and choose the Display
tab to get this brightness slider.)
• Disconnect LAN/modem connections and disable wireless
communications when not in use (uncheck the Wireless checkboxes in
the Motion Dashboard).
• Turn off optional and unnecessary background programs and turn off
or unplug accessory equipment from the USB and IEEE 1394 ports.
What does the Tablet PC need for use in another country?
Just an outlet adapter, which you can find in airports and travel stores.
The AC adapter will adjust automatically to different voltages when
plugged into the correct location-appropriate power adapter.
What’s the best way to clean the standard display screen?
To clean the acrylic display screen, wipe it with a soft cloth (like the one
supplied) onto which you have sprayed a window-type cleaner. Do not
spray cleaners, spray/pour any liquid, nor wipe any abrasive cleaner on
the screen nor any surface of the Tablet PC. Do not use tissues or paper
towels to clean the screen. They contain wood fibers and may scratch
the surface.
How should I clean the View Anywhere display screen?
To clean the View Anywhere display screen, wipe it with a soft cloth
(like the one supplied). If needed, clean with any alcohol-based product
recommended for use on anti-reflective glass. Other cleaning products
may leave a residue. Do not spray cleaners, spray/pour any liquid, nor
wipe any abrasive cleaner on the screen nor any surface of the Tablet PC.
Do not use tissues or paper towels to clean the screen. They contain
wood fibers and may scratch the surface.
Will scratches affect the display/digitizer’s performance?
Testing has not found appreciable loss of performance on a scratched
display.
