Taking Care of the Tablet PC
Location Guidelines
 For optimal performance, use the Tablet PC where the recommended temperature
is between 0 °C (32 °F) and 55 °C (131 °F). (Actual operating temperature depends
on product specifications.)
 Avoid placing the Tablet PC in a location subject to high humidity, extreme
temperatures, mechanical vibration, direct sunlight, or heavy dust. Using in
extreme environments for long periods can result in product deterioration and a
shortened product life.
 Operating in an environment with metallic dust is not allowed.

may damage the Tablet PC.
 Do not cover or block any ventilation openings on the Tablet PC. For example, do
not place the Tablet PC on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Otherwise,
overheating may occur that results in damage to the Tablet PC.
 As the Tablet PC can become very hot during operation, keep it away from objects
that are vulnerable to heat.
 Keep the Tablet PC at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical appliances that
can generate a strong magnetic field such as a TV, refrigerator, motor, or a large
audio speaker.
 Avoid moving the Tablet PC abruptly from a cold to a warm place.
A temperature difference of more than 10 °C (18 °F) may cause condensation
inside the unit, which may damage the storage media.
