time may become short. The tablet consumes power when the flash memory is warming up
during startup. Therefore, if you are using battery power and the remaining power is low,
the tablet may not start up.
If you cannot power on the tablet, or the tablet does not resume from sleep. Leave it in an
environment of 5°C or higher temperature for about an hour, and then power it on again.
DO NOT use this product if connected with the AC adapter or any other cables connected
during a thunderstorm.
DO NOT place this product near any magnetic objects.
ESD WARNING:
Electrostatic discharge:
Electrostatic discharge is the sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects
caused by contact. The product may be damaged when it comes in contact with your hand or
other objects with built-up static electricity.
Please take note of the following items to prevent damaging your product or losing important
data:
Please make sure the product is grounded properly when disconnecting the power source.
Before installing a component, please place the component inside an anti-static container.
Avoid touching the product’s pins, leads, or electronic components.
Please use non-magnetic tools when installing a component.
Before handling a component, please touch a conductive metal surface to discharge the
static electricity from your body.
After removing a component, please store the component inside an anti-static container.

the subject and the surroundings (e.g. the subject is standing in front of a white wall while
wearing a white shirt).
Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun is behind the
subject and the subject is in deep shadow).
The subject is a flat object with only horizontal lines.
The subject is a fast-moving object.
The scene is poorly lit.
The scene features bright reflections or backlighting.
The scene features flickering objects (e.g. fluorescent lights).
The scene features point light sources (e.g. light bulbs, spotlights, or LEDs).
The scene features several objects that are different distances from the camera.
In these circumstances where the camera is unable to focus, point the camera at another object
at the same distance as the camera as the subject, then wait for the camera to focus and take
the picture.

Replacing the Battery
Battery Removal and Replacement
The primary battery is a 7.2V / 3950mAh battery installed on all models under the battery
compartment cover located on the rear of the tablet, which can be removed and replaced by the
user.
The optional secondary battery, also called a bridge battery, is located internally and cannot be
accessed by the user. The secondary battery is mainly used to power the tablet when the
primary battery is removed.
For models featuring both the primary battery and the optional bridge battery, the primary
battery becomes a hot-swappable component, meaning that replacement of the battery can
occur while the machine is still powered on without harm to the system.
In order to access the primary battery for removal/replacement follow the instructions below:
NOTE: When replacing the main battery in models featuring a bridge battery, ensure that the bridge battery is at
least at 40% capacity.
1. Place the tablet on a flat surface with the rear side up.
2. Turn the two battery compartment locks counter-clockwise to unlock the battery
compartment cover.
3. Remove the battery compartment cover.
