ASUS is devoted to creating environment-friendly products and
packagings to safeguard consumers’ health while minimizing the impact
on the environment. The reduction of the number of the manual pages
complies with the reduction of carbon emission.
For the detailed user manual and related information, refer to the user
manual included in the Transformer Pad or visit the ASUS Support Site

Charging your battery pack
Once the Transformer Pad is fully-charged, ensure that you unplug it from the power
source. Some electronic items are not designed to be kept plugged to a power
source for long periods of time.
If you wish to use the battery power, ensure 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 to an AC power source. It takes much longer to charge the
battery pack when your Transformer Pad is in use.
Airplane precautions
Ask an airline personnel if you want to use your Transformer Pad onboard the aircraft.
Most airlines have restrictions in using electronic devices, and allow its use only when
the plane reaches its cruising altitude.
There are three types of airport security devices: X-ray scanner (for luggages placed
on conveyor belts), metal detectors (a walk-through security checking device), and
magnetic wands (hand-held devices for checking on passengers). You can send your
Transformer Pad through the X-ray scanner, but do not send your Transformer Pad
through the metal detectors or checked by magnetic wands.

Declarations and Safety Statements
Federal Communications Commission Statement
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiated 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 does cause 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 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 dierent from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
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 Specic
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 specied power level in dierent channels.
The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC is 1.270 W/kg when
placed next to the body.
