Optimise your battery performance

Here are some tips to help you optimise your battery performance.

- Reduce the brightness of your screen: Open the Settings charm, tap Screen, and then adjust the slider. The brighter the screen is, the more power it uses.

- Choose a power plan that saves power: A power plan is a collection of settings that control how your Windows tablet uses power.

- Turn off or remove devices not in use. Many USB devices consume power when connected, so you'd better unplug devices not in use.

- Turn off Wi-Fi: If you do not need Wi-Fi for a while, turn it off to conserve battery power. To do this, open the Settings charm, tap the wireless network icon ( ) and turn off Wi-Fi.

Power on your tablet

Press the power button to power on your tablet.

1. Insert a memory card with the gold contacts facing downwards.
2. Push the memory card into the slot until it locks in place.
