There are three main types of airport security devices: X-ray machines (used

on items placed on conveyor belts), magnetic detectors (used on people

walking through security checks), and magnetic wands

(hand-held devices used on people or individual items). You can send

your Transformer through airport X-ray machines. But do not send your

Transformer through airport magnetic detectors or expose it to magnetic

wands.

Airplane Precautions

Ask an airline personnel if you want to use your Transformer onboard an aircraft.

Most airlines have restrictions for using electronic devices. Most airlines allow

electronic use only between and not during takeos and landings.

Charging Your Batteries

If you intend to use battery power, be sure to fully charge your battery pack

before going on long trips. Remember that the power adapter charges the

battery pack as long as it is plugged into the computer and an AC power

source. Be aware that it takes much longer to charge the battery pack when the

Transformer is in use.

Remember to fully charge the battery (8 hours or more) before rst use and

whenever it is depleted to prolong battery life. The battery reaches its maximum

capacity after a few full charging and discharging cycles.
