With the Clipboard detached from the 
keyboard, Surface Book becomes a thin, 
light tablet that works perfectly with 
OneNote and Surface Pen. It even has its 
own battery, giving you several hours of 
use with the keyboard detached. 
To reattach the keyboard, align the 
keyboard and Clipboard and bring them 
together until they click into place. 
Turn the Clipboard around and reattach it 
to use Surface Book like a creative canvas. 
By reconnecting it to the keyboard, you 
have access to the USB ports and the 
DisplayPort and you have more battery 
time. 
Show your screen to other people in the 
room by attaching the Clipboard to the 
keyboard so you’re looking at the back of 
the Clipboard as you type.
