Safety Precautions
The following safety precautions will increase the life of the Eee Slate.
Follow all precautions and instructions. Except as described in this manual,
refer all servicing to qualied personnel. Do not use damaged power
cords, accessories, or other peripherals. Do not use strong solvents such as
thinners, benzene, or other chemicals on or near the surface.
Disconnect the AC power before cleaning. Wipe the Eee Slate using
a clean cellulose sponge or chamois cloth dampened with a solution
of nonabrasive detergent and a few drops of warm water and
remove any extra moisture with a dry cloth.
SAFE TEMP: This device
should only be used
in environments with
ambient temperatures
between 5
o
C (41
o
F) and
35
o
C (95
o
F).
DO NOT place or drop
items that may damage
or scratch the device.
DO NOT expose
to extreme high
temperature or to direct
sunlight.
DO NOT place on
uneven or unstable work
surfaces. Seek servicing
if the casing has been
damaged. Refer all
servicing to qualied
service personnel. DO NOT expose to or
use near liquids, rain, or

ASUS Eee Slate
vii
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 Eee Slate 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
maximmum capacity after a few full charging and discharging cycles.
Airplane Precautions
Ask an airline personnel if you want to use your Eee Slate 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.
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 Eee Slate through airport X-ray machines.
But do not send your Eee Slate through airport magnetic detectors
or expose it to magnetic wands.

Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
(on selected models)
The TPM, or Trusted Platform Module, is a security hardware device on the
system board that will hold computer-generated keys for encryption. It is
a hardware-based solution that an help avoid attacks by hackers looking
to capture passwords and encryption keys to sensitive data. The TPM
provides the ability to Eee Slate to run applications more secure and to make
transactions and communication more trustworthy.
The security features provided by the TPM are internally supported by
the following cryptographic capabilities of each TPM: hashing, random
number generation, asymmetric key generation, and asymmetric
encryption/decryption. Each individual TPM on each individual computer
system has a unique signature initialized during the silicon manufacturing
process that further enhances its trust/security eectiveness. Each
individual TPM must have an Owner before it is useful as a security device.
TPM Applications
TPM is useful for any customer that is interested in providing an addition
layer of security to the computer system. The TPM, when bundled with an
optional security software package, can provide overall system security,
le protection capabilities and protect against email/privacy concerns.
TPM helps provide security that can be stronger than that contained in the
system BIOS, operating system, or any non-TPM application.

Europe ETSI 2.412-2.472 GHz Ch01 through Ch13
France Restricted Wireless Frequency Bands
Some areas of France have a restricted frequency band. The worst case
maximum authorized power indoors are:
• 10mW for the entire 2.4 GHz band (2400 MHz–2483.5 MHz)
• 100mW for frequencies between 2446.5 MHz and 2483.5 MHz
Channels 10 through 13 inclusive operate in the band 2446.6 MHz
to 2483.5 MHz.
There are few possibilities for outdoor use: On private property or on
the private property of public persons, use is subject to a preliminary
authorization procedure by the Ministry of Defense, with maximum
authorized power of 100mW in the 2446.5–2483.5 MHz band. Use
outdoors on public property is not permitted.
In the departments listed below, for the entire 2.4 GHz band:
• Maximum authorized power indoors is 100mW
• Maximum authorized power outdoors is 10mW
Departments in which the use of the 2400–2483.5 MHz band is permitted
with an EIRP of less than 100mW indoors and less than 10mW outdoors:
