First Edition / June 2014
Charging your device
Ensure to fully charge your ASUS Tablet before using it in
battery mode for extended periods. Remember that the power
adapter charges your ASUS Tablet as long as it is plugged into
an AC power source. Be aware that it takes much longer to
charge the ASUS Tablet when it is in use.
IMPORTANT! Do not leave the ASUS Tablet connected to
the power supply once it is fully charged. ASUS Tablet is not
designed to be left connected to the power supply for extended
periods of time.
Airplane precautions
Contact your airline provider to learn about related inight
services that can be used and restrictions that must be followed
when using your ASUS Tablet in-ight.
IMPORTANT! You can send your ASUS Tablet through x-ray
machines (used on items placed on conveyor belts), but do not
expose them from magnetic detectors and wands.
Safety precautions
This ASUS Tablet should only be used in enviroments with
ambient temperatures between 0°C to 35°C (32°F to 95°F).
Long time exposure to extremely high or low temperature
may quickly deplete and shorten the battery life. To ensure the
battery’s optimal performance, ensure that it is exposed within
the recommended environment temperature.

Federal Communications Commission
Statement
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15. Operation is
subjecttothefollowingtwoconditions:
• Thisdevicemaynotcauseharmfulinterference.
• Thisdevicemustacceptanyinterferencereceived,including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
inaparticularinstallation.Ifthisequipmentcausesharmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment o and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by doing one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorientorrelocatethereceivingantenna.
• Increasetheseparationbetweentheequipmentand
receiver.
• Connecttheequipmentintoanoutletonacircuitdierent
from that to which the receiver is connected.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure
to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not
to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
theU.S.Government.
The exposure standard employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specic Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
setbytheFCCis1.6W/kg.TestsforSARareconductedusing
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the EUT
transmitting at the specied power level in dierent channels.
The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC is
1.23W/kgwhenplacednexttothebody.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the
FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is
