Radio frequency interference Observe signs and notices that prohibit or restrict the use of mobile devices (for example, in healthcare facilities or blasting areas). Although iPad is designed, tested, and manufactured to comply with regulations governing radio frequency emissions, such emissions from iPad can negatively affect the operation of other electronic equipment, causing them to malfunction.
Using connectors, ports, and buttons Never force a connector into a port or apply excessive pressure to a button, because this may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for obstructions and make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

Profiles settings Configuration profiles define settings for using iPad with corporate or school networks or accounts. You might be asked to install a configuration profile that was sent to you in an email, or one that is downloaded from a webpage. iPad asks for your permission to install the profile, and displays information about what it contains, when you open the file. You can see the profiles you have installed in Settings > General > Profiles.
Purchased content, iCloud Photo Sharing, and My Photo Stream content don’t count against your 5 GB of free iCloud storage. For more information about backing up iPad, see support.apple.com/kb/HT5262. Update and restore iPad software You can update iPad software in Settings, or by using iTunes. You can also erase or restore iPad, and then use iCloud or iTunes to restore from a backup. Deleted data is no longer accessible through the iPad user interface, but it isn’t erased from iPad.
Turn Data Roaming on or off. Turning off Data Roaming avoids carrier charges when using a network provided by a different carrier. Set up Personal Hotspot.

Go to Settings > Cellular, then turn cellular data on or off for any app that can use cellular data. If a setting is off, iPad uses only Wi-Fi for that service.
