Tablet Proper Care Policies; General Care - Lenovo X41 Resource Manual

The Tablet is the property of the New York City Department of Education iLead
Institute and is on loan to you to use as a tool for instructional leadership. It is
your responsibility to keep your Tablet in good condition. This involves making
sure it is stored in the device locker properly and kept clean. Below are some
guidelines to follow when cleaning and storing your Tablet

General Care

Under no circumstances are you to open the Tablet PC housing – doing
so will render the warranty void.
Liquids and other debris can damage the Tablet PC. Avoid eating or
drinking while using the computer.
Close and open the Tablet carefully – from the center of the screen – do
not slam it shut!
Do not leave pencils or pens on your keyboard when closing your Tablet.
Do not use the Tablet as a folder to store papers.
Do not insert things, especially metal, into the openings of your Tablet.
Be patient!! Sometimes computers need a few seconds to think. Don't
start pounding on the keys if a response is not immediate.
Do not use the computer in a dusty or dirty area. Dust can cause
contamination of the unit that can result in malfunction or damage.
Cables should be lined up straight with connector when inserting and
removing. Be sure to grasp the plug, not the cord, and pull straight out
when disconnecting.
When removing the power cable, grasp the cable by the plastic end, not
the wire. Pull gently to disconnect. Do not jerk the cable out.
Be careful not to jerk the Tablet around when cables are attached.
Close the computer very carefully. The screen is the most fragile part of
the machine.
Never expose your Tablet to extreme conditions (heat or cold).
Type gently on the keyboard. The keyboard is pressure sensitive and as
a result is very responsive
Make a routine of cleaning and using your keyboard properly. If you do
this, you shouldn' t encounter many problems.
