Zagg Rugged Book Manual

INSERTING/REMOVING YOUR TABLET

To insert your tablet into the Rugged Book open the Book's case and remove it from the keyboard (to do this pull the case up and away from the keyboard). Then, line up your tablet with the holes in the case. Make sure the camera hole is aligned properly as well as the opening for your charging cable. When everything is aligned, set the bottom half of your tablet in the cover and apply light pressure to ensure it's properly settled. Snap the top half of your tablet into the cover. Check all corners to make sure they have seated properly.

When your tablet is secure in the case, you can connect it to the keyboard by placing it in the magnetic trough. Powerful magnets will secure it in place, but will also allow you to remove your tablet any time it benefits you.

To easily remove your tablet from the case, separate the case from the keyboard, and then gently roll the rubber overmold away from the edges while pressing the tablet from behind. Grasp your tablet's exposed side and lift/pull away from the Rugged Book.

POWERING ON AND OFF

To turn your Rugged Book on, press the Power button. A green LED on the battery key will illuminate briefly while the keyboard powers up. To turn your Rugged Book off, press and hold the Power button for three seconds. A red LED will flash, indicating your Rugged Book has turned off.

PAIRING YOUR ZAGG Rugged Book

Pairing your Rugged Book with your tablet is easy. It should only need to be paired once, using the following directions. If the connection between your tablet and Rugged Book is ever lost, repeat these steps.

1. Access the Bluetooth settings on your tablet.
2. Press and hold the Bluetooth button for three seconds. A blue LED under the Power key will flash until your Rugged Book and tablet are paired.
3. Your tablet will display "ZAGG Rugged Book" as an available device. Select this option to complete pairing.
   

CHARGING

Your Rugged Book features a powerful lithium polymer battery that lasts for up to two years of normal use between charges*. It comes with a charging cable you can use to charge your keyboard quickly and conveniently. To charge your Rugged Book, follow these steps:

1. Plug the micro USB connector into the charging port.
2. Plug the regular USB connector into any USB outlet.
3. A red LED under the Power button will illuminate to indicate your Rugged Book is charging. Wait until this light turns off, indicating a full charge. It usually takes 2-4 hours to completely charge your Rugged Book.
4. Remove the micro USB connector and enjoy your Rugged Book for up to two years before you need to charge it again.
   * Normal use is approximately one hour of use per day without the backlit feature. Using the backlit feature will impact battery life and will require more frequent charging.
   

BATTERY LIFE

As mentioned, the Rugged Book features a powerful, rechargeable battery that lasts up to two years between charges. To check your Rugged Book'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.
3. Three red flashes indicate less than 25% battery life remaining. When your Book reaches critical battery level, the red LED will flash once every five minutes.

To help preserve battery life, your Rugged Book will enter sleep mode if left on and not used for several minutes. To awaken your Rugged Book, press any key. The Rugged Book's battery has no memory and may be charged whenever you wish.
