ASUS is devoted to creating environment-friendly products and
packagings to safeguard consumers’ health while minimizing the impact
on the environment. The reduction of the number of the manual pages
complies with the reduction of carbon emission.

For the detailed user manual and related information, refer to the user
manual included in the Transformer Pad or visit the ASUS Support Site

Charging your battery pack

Once the Transformer Pad is fully-charged, ensure that you unplug it from the power
source. Some electronic items are not designed to be kept plugged to a power
source for long periods of time.

If you wish to use the battery power, ensure 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 to an AC power source. It takes much longer to charge the
battery pack when your Transformer Pad is in use.

Airplane precautions

Ask an airline personnel if you want to use your Transformer Pad onboard the aircraft.
Most airlines have restrictions in using electronic devices, and allow its use only when
the plane reaches its cruising altitude.

There are three types of airport security devices: X-ray scanner (for luggages placed
on conveyor belts), metal detectors (a walk-through security checking device), and
magnetic wands (hand-held devices for checking on passengers). You can send your
Transformer Pad through the X-ray scanner, but do not send your Transformer Pad
through the metal detectors or checked by magnetic wands.
