power. Depending on the configuration of the GoBook MR-1 there are specific considerations:
a. Basic Configuration – No RF Modems or external device connections. When using a basic
configuration unit, there are no special considerations for power management.
b. Integrated RF Devices – Disable integrated or user installed RF devices when not in use as they can
consume battery power unnecessarily
c. Externally connected devices – Some externally connected devices may be powered by the GoBook
MR-1. It is best to exit any application utilizing these devices prior to powering off. Restarting the
application should reinitialize the device. Externally connected devices or peripherals using GoBook
MR-1 battery power may result in reduced battery run times.

etc.)
b. Utilize Windows provided Backup applications or a third party application to back up essential data.
