Transportation Precautions

To prepare the Tablet PC for transport, you should turn it OFF and disconnect all external

peripherals to prevent damage to the connectors. The Tablet PC has vent holes for

expelling the internal heat, transporting the product in a bag in ON condition would block

these vents. This may create permanent damage to the product. Therefore, you should

not transport the Tablet PC in a bag while the power is still ON.

Operating Environment

Since users are likely to maintain the same posture for a long period of time when using the Tablet PC, they

will be exhausted more easily if compared with other users engaged in other general operations. To use

HCL ME Tablet PC comfortably it’s important to find a comfortable posture and to take frequent breaks. Let

your table, case, or dock accessory support HCL ME Tablet PC during use.

Health Management

Take a 2 to 3-minute break every 30 minutes after you have operated the Tablet PC for a long time.

you have symptoms such as eyestrain, sleepiness, dizziness, stiff in the shoulders, or numbness of the

wrists ,hands or fingers, have a rest right away. In case these symptoms remain the next day, please contact

your doctor as soon as possible.
