Important Safety Information
Before you use the IX101B1 (referred to as the tablet), read these safety instructions and the operation
instructions in this handbook.
Failure to observe all these instructions voids the Limited Warranty and may lead to suspension or denial of

Radio signals from your tablet will not affect the operation of most modern equipment, but certain electronic
equipment, including automotive systems, may not be shielded against radio signals from your tablet. Check
with the manufacturer of your motor vehicle or the manufacturer’s representative to determine whether using
the tablet will present any safety issues.
Avoid using the tablet in any environment that requires your full attention, such as when driving a vehicle. If
you need to use your tablet while driving, have a passenger use it for you or find a safe location to halt your
vehicle.
WARNING BATTERIES
Use only battery types specified in this handbook. Using any other type of battery can be dangerous and can
disable the tablet. Do not drop or mishandle the batteries, immerse them in water, or subject them to high
heat. Doing so could increase the risk of explosion or leakage, and possibly cause injury. The lithium‐ion
batteries used in this equipment contain material that is hazardous to your health. If battery contents come in
contact with the eyes, IMMEDIATELY flush the affected area with clean water for 15 minutes and have
someone else summon medical attention for you. Unaffected persons should assist the affected individual in
the vital first flushing of the eyes. RECHARGING THE BATTERY MUST ONLY BE CARRIED OUT IN A NON‐
HAZERDOUS AREA USING THE SUPPLIED AC ADAPTOR. The definition of hazardous areas can be found in
Standard EN 60079‐10.
WARNING
When operating the tablet in a known explosive environment do not remove or replace the battery while the
circuit is live. Before removing the battery verify that the area is known to be free of ignitable concentrations of
flammable substances. EXPLOSION HAZARD – DO NOT DISCONNECT WHILE CIRCUIT IS LIVE UNLESS AREA IS
KNOWN TO BE NON‐HAZERDOUS.

WARNING
Do not use any dock or any other accessory or attachment that is not manufactured or supplied by Xplore or an
authorized Xplore accessories supplier. Use of any accessory or attachment that is not supplied or approved for
use with the tablet by Xplore is not permitted because it may cause hazards.
Operate the tablet only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. (See page 54 for more
information about the battery and power supply.) Route power supply cords so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at plugs and
convenience receptacles, and at the point where cords exit from the tablet or its dock. Do not overload wall
outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles because this can cause fire or electric shock.
Unplug the tablet and refer the tablet and dock for service to qualified service personnel if any of the following
conditions occur:

The power supply cord or plug is damaged.

The tablet or dock does not operate normally when you follow the instructions in this book.

The tablet or dock exhibits a distinct change in performance.
Adjust only controls for which there are instructions in this book. An improper adjustment of other controls can
result in damage and may require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the tablet or dock to
normal operation.
CAUTION
Avoid prolonged physical contact with the exposed metal surfaces on the front and back of the tablet. While
the tablet may not feel hot to the touch, if you maintain physical contact with the tablet for a long time (for
example, if you rest the tablet on your lap for a long time), your skin may suffer low‐heat injury. In addition, be
careful when you remove a PC card that has been used for a long time, because the card may be hot.

Maintaining the Tablet
Caring for the Tablet
This section provides information about how to keep your tablet in top working condition.
Checking Power Cords and Connectors
Check AC and DC power cords and power connectors periodically for damage. Replace the power cord
immediately if you find any damage.
Protecting the Computer from Damages

Your computer is designed to sustain a multiple‐axis drop to anon‐ yielding surface. Do not intentionally
drop the computer because the cumulative effects of multiple drops may damage the computer.

Do not place heavy objects on the computer.

Do not disassemble the computer.

Keep the computer at least 5 inches (13 centimeters) away from any electrical appliance that generates
a strong magnetic field, such as a motor, magnet, TV, refrigerator, or large audio speakers.
Storing the Computer
You can store the computer in the Off state for about 30 days with a fully charged battery installed. After this
period, recharge the battery or replace it with a charged battery.
Caring for the Display Screen
To clean the display screen, dampen a soft cotton cloth with water and gently wipe the screen surface.
Note: Do not use isopropyl alcohol to clean the screen. Alcohol may damage the surface of the screen.
Protecting Computer from Damages
The screen protector is a durable, replaceable writing surface that protects the display screen from abrasion.
To obtain screen protectors, check with your reseller, or go to the Xplore Web site at www.xploretech.com for
ordering information. Additional information about installation is included with the screen protectors.
Removing the Screen Protector
Slide your fingernail under the edge of the screen protector and pull the protector away from the screen.

Note: This equipment 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 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 does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off 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.

WLAN: (Wi-Fi)
Please note that 5150‐5250MHz (Ch. 36‐48) is restricted to indoor‐use only in many countries including the
United States.
RF Exposure
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified
By the FCC with the tablet PC transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the tablet PC while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the tablet PC is designed to operate at
multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are
to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.

Before a tablet PC model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC and IC that
it does not exceed the limit established by the government‐adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests
are performed in positions and locations (e.g., next to body/lap) as required by the FCC for each model. (Next
to body/lap measurements may differ among tablet PC models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
and IC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various tablet PCs and at
various positions, they are all required to meet the government regulations for safe exposure.
This device was evaluated and shown to comply with FCC and IC SAR RF exposure requirements.
Avoid covering or holding antennas when transmitting. Antenna locations are shown in the following figure.

Health and Safety Information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your wireless tablet PC is a radio transmitter and receiver. It 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 as well as the RTT&E directive. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population.
The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1‐1992

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986

International Commission on Non‐Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996

Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

European Union RTT&E Directive for SAR
The exposure standard for wireless mobile tablet PCs employs a unit of Measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. The SAR limit set by the RTT&E is 2.0W/kg.
Note: In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile tablet PCs used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. In Europe the SAR limit for mobile tablet PCs used by the public is 2.0
watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations.
