Français Nederlands Deutsch Dansk English Safety Instructions Please follow the instructions in this section for the safe operation of your tablet: Do not allow small children to play unattended with electrical equipment. Children are incapable of judging potential risks properly. Keep the packing materials, such as plastic away from children. The danger of suffocation could arise in the case of misuse. Do not open the case of the tablet, or the power adapter. When the case is open there is a danger of severe electric shock. Do not insert foreign objects through the slots and openings of the tablet. This may lead to electric shock, electrical short-circuit or fire that will damage your tablet. Operation under extreme environmental conditions can result in damage to your tablet. Do not operate the tablet during a thunderstorm, in order to avoid damage through a lightning strike. Never place objects on top of the tablet that would exert any pressure on the LCD display. An injury hazard exists when the LCD display breaks. Wear protective gloves when handling any broken parts. Wash your hands with soap. In order to avoid damage to the LCD display, do not touch it with sharp objects. Switch off your tablet immediately or do not switch it on at all and contact the contact customer service if …the power supply or the connectors attached to it are burnt or damaged. Replace the defective power supply with an original power supply. Under no circumstances may a defective power supply be repaired.....the housing of the tablet is damaged or fluids have leaked into it. Have the tablet checked by customer service first as the tablet may not be safely operated and there may be a life-threatening risk of electrocution!6 Ambient Temperature The tablet is most reliably operated at an ambient temperature between 5° C and 30° C and at a relative humidity between 20% and 80% (without condensation). When powered off, the tablet can be stored at temperatures between 0° C and 60° C. Unplug the power during thunderstorms and make especially sure to remove the antenna cables, if present. We recommend the use of a surge protector for additional safety, in order to protect your tablet from being damaged by power surges or lightning strikes through the power network. Wait until the tablet has reached ambient (room) temperature before turning it on or connecting it to the power adapter. Drastic variations in temperature and humidity can create condensation within the tablet and may cause it to short- circuit. For transporting the tablet keep the original packing. Connecting Pay attention to the following information in order to connect your tablet correctly: Power Supply Do not open the power adapter housing. When the housing is open there is a danger of severe electric shock. It contains no user-serviceable parts. The electric outlet must be in the vicinity of the tablet and within reach of the power adapter cords. To disconnect your tablet from the power source, or set the tablet to battery operation, remove the power cord from the tablet’s power socket. Only use the tablet with a power adapter operating at AC 110-240V~/50-60 Hz. For details on power consumption, please refer to the rating plate on the rear of your tablet. If you are unsure of the type of power supply available at the point of use, ask your local power company. Use only the supplied power adapter. To detach the power adapter from the mains power supply remove the plug from the power source first and then remove the connector from the tablet. A reverse sequence could damage the power adapter or the tablet. Always hold the connector firmly when removing it. Never pull on the power cord. Cabling Arrange cables so that no one can walk on or trip over them.

The power adapter must be connected to a power outlet. The power lead from the power adapter connects to the Multi Connector (8) on the bottom of the tablet (see also Multi Connector on page 16). The adapter provides the tablet with power and also charges the battery. The battery is also being charged when you are working on your tablet with the power adapter connected. The power adapter is still receiving power even when your tablet is not connected to it. You should therefore unplug the power adapter from the outlet if it is not connected to the tablet. Warning! Only use the power adapter supplied with your tablet. Battery Operation Note Please charge and discharge the new battery completely two to three times in succession. Only then will it achieve its full performance level! Batteries store electrical energy in their cells and then deliver it when needed. The useful life and performance of your battery will depend on careful handling. The battery should be completely discharged before a charging process and completely charged again in order to optimise its useful life and its performance.16 Charging the Battery The battery is charged via the power adapter. If the power adapter is connected, it charges the battery automatically, no matter if the tablet is turned on or off. If the tablet is switched on, the charging process takes a significantly longer time. Note The charging process will be interrupted if the temperature or the voltage of the battery is too high. Resetting the Tablet-PC You can reset your tablet if it is no longer reacting or working properly. This option restarts the navigation system, without reinstallation being necessary.

But this can be difficult and varies widely between different manufacturers. We, therefore, adhere to the clear and strict requirements of ISO 13406-2, class II, for the warranty handling of all LCD display products. These requirements are summarised below. Within ISO-standard 13406-2 the general requirements regarding pixel defects are defined. Pixel defects are classified into three failure types and four failure classes. Each individual pixel is made up of three sub-pixels in the primary colours (red, green, blue). Pixel structure

Types of Pixel Failures: Type 1: A constantly lit pixel (a bright, white spot), even though it is not addressed. A white pixel is caused when all three sub-pixel are lit. Type 2: A pixel that does not light up (dark, black spot), although it is addressed Type 3: Abnormal or defective red, green or blue sub-pixels. (E.g. constantly lit with half the brightness, one colour is not shining, blinking or flickering, but not belonging to Type 1 or 2 Pixel Failures) In addition: A cluster of type 3 (= 2 or more defective sub-pixels in an array of 5 x 5 pixel). A cluster is an array of 5 x 5 pixel (15 x 5 sub-pixel).29 Français Nederlands Deutsch Dansk English ISO 13406-2, Class II Resolution Type 1 Type 2 Type 3 Cluster Type 1, Type 2 Cluster Type 3 1024 x 768 2 2 4 0 2 1280 x 854 3 3 6 0 3 1280 x 1024 3 3 7 0 3 1366 x 768 3 3 7 0 3 1400 x 1050 3 3 8 0 3 Example: A 17” (44 cm) - SXGA-display consists of 1280 horizontal and 1024 vertical picture dots (pixel), which amounts to a total of 1,31 million pixels. Based on one million pixels this translates into a factor of about 1.31. Class II type failure consequently allows for three defects each of type 1 and type 2 and 7 defects of type 3 and 3 cluster of type 3. These cases are normally not covered by warranty. If the number of failures exceeds the figures of any category mentioned above then this may be covered by the warranty.30 FCC Compliance Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of 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. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced technician for help. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Shielded interface cables, if any, must be used in order to comply with the emission limits.31 Français Nederlands Deutsch Dansk English Index
