INSERTING/REMOVING YOUR iPad®
To insert your iPad mini into the Cover, start with the keyboard
in portrait orientation with the hinge closed and on the left.
Then, with your volume control buttons facing out (the Home
button is on the top facing away from you), slide it into the
hinge channel, making sure it is firmly in place. You will feel the
magnets engage, securing your device. For best results, always
insert your iPad with the hinge closed and align it with your
keyboard.
When your iPad is secure in the Cover, and closed, cleverly
placed magnets will activate it’s sleep/wake feature to help
preserve battery life. Simply open your Cover to wake your
iPad.
To easily remove your iPad, start with the hinge slightly open
(enough that you can grasp the corner of your iPad) and while
securing the Cover, pull your iPad away from the hinge.
To insert your iPad using the media mode, start with the
Cover’s keyboard in portrait orientation with the hinge closed
and on the left. Then, with your iPad also in portrait orientation
(the Home button is on the bottom, facing you), slide your
iPad into the hinge channel, making sure it is firmly in place*.
*Note: When your iPad is in media mode, it is somewhat less secure in the channel as when in regular mode. Use
care when transporting it in this mode.

BATTERY LIFE
As mentioned, the Cover features a powerful, rechargeable battery that lasts up to
three months between charges. To check your Cover’s remaining battery power, press
the battery key. The LED indicator will flash one of three ways.
1. Three green flashes indicate 50% or more battery life remaining.
2. Three yellow flashes indicate between 25%-49% battery life remaining.

reaches critical battery level, the red light will flash once every five minutes.
To help preserve battery life, your Cover will enter sleep mode if left on and not used
for several minutes. To awaken your Cover, press any key. The Cover’s battery has no
