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 ASUS Transformer Pad is in use.

Fully charge the battery up to eight hours for the rst-time use. The battery reaches its maximum capacity after one full charging and discharging cycle.

Airplane Precautions

Ask an airline personnel if you want to use your ASUS Transformer Pad 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 (handheld devices used on people or individual items). You can send your ASUS Transformer Pad through airport X-ray machines. But do not send your ASUS Transformer Pad through airport magnetic detectors or expose it to magnetic wands.
