Caring For Your Tablet And Tools; Replacing The Pen Tip; Battery Life Information - Wacom GRAPHIRE BLUETOOTH User Manual

Caring for your tablet and tools

Keep your Graphire tools and tablet surface clean. Dust and dirt particles can stick to your tools and cause
excessive wear to the tablet surface. Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth will help prolong the life of
your tablet surface and tools; you can also dampen the cloth using a very mild soap diluted with water.
Do not use volatile liquids, such as paint thinner or benzene, as they may damage the plastic case.
Keep your tablet and tools in a clean, dry place and avoid extremes in temperature. Room temperature is
best. Also, your Graphire tools and tablet are not made to come apart. Twisting the pen case can break the
pen. Taking apart the product will void your warranty.

Replacing the pen tip

The pen tip (nib) will wear with normal use. When the nib gets too short or develops a flat point, you can
replace it with another nib. Simply clasp the old nib with a tweezer, needle-nosed plier, or similar instrument
and pull it straight out of the pen. Then slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen – firmly
push the nib until it stops.

Battery life information

All Li-Poly batteries age over time and typically need to be replaced approximately once every two or three
years, whether they are used or not. For information on ordering a replacement battery, see
and accessories.
Notes:
• When the battery is connected, the tablet will use a small amount of current even when the tablet is
switched off. It is a good idea to charge the battery before leaving the tablet unused for a number of
days. There is a built-in protection circuit that will prevent the battery from over-discharging. Once a
Li-Poly battery has been over-discharged it cannot be recharged.
• If you will not be using your tablet for an extended period of time (a month or longer), Wacom suggests
unplugging the battery from the tablet connector in order to conserve the charge and battery life.
Store the battery in a cool, dry place.
• Li-Poly batteries are not affected by cycling or other methods used to improve the performance of
different battery types.

Important: When the
Graphire pen is not in use,
place it in the pen storage
compartment, the pen
stand, or lay it flat on your
desk. Leaving the pen on
the tablet when not in use
can prevent the tablet from
switching off and cause the
battery to drain down. To
maintain the sensitivity of
your pen, do not store the
pen in a container where it
will rest on the tip or eraser.
