CARING FOR YOUR G TABLET

Caring for the LCD Screen

The LCD Screen is the most delicate component of the gTablet and comprised of thin glass.  Please treat with care.

 ·         DO NOT apply abrupt force as LCD screen may break.

·         Place the gTablet in carrying case to protect it from dirt, water, shock and scratches before traveling.

·         DO NOT drop or place heavy objects on the LCD Screen.

·         DO NOT scratch the LCD Screen with fingernails or hard objects.

·         Use a soft and lint-free cloth to wipe your gTablet.  Wipe gently in order to avoid damaging the LCD Screen.

·         DO NOT use your hand to wipe the LCD Screen directly.

·         Turn off the gTablet if it will not be used for a long time.

·         DO NOT clean the LCD Screen with chemical cleaners, acidic cleaner, or spray cleaners.

·         Ensure that the LCD screen does NOT come into contact with hard objects (e.g.: buttons, watchband, pen).

·         DO NOT spill liquid on or into the gTablet as it can damage the components of the gTablet.

·         To properly clean your LCD screen, use a product specifically designed for LCD TVs and computers.

Caring for the Battery

The gTablet battery is a Lithium Ion rechargeable battery.  Battery life can be increased while using the gTablet by managing your LCD screen brightness and your wireless (WiFi) connection.  To maximize your battery life, review the following:

·         Check your LCD screen brightness setting by tapping on the ¡°Settings¡± icon from the applications menu.  Then tap on ¡°Display¡± and under ¡°Brightness¡± move the slide bar towards the left to decrease brightness.  This will save battery power allowing your gTablet to operate longer before needing to charge.

·         Turn your wireless (WiFi) connection to ¡°Off¡± if you are not using wireless.  Do this by tapping on the ¡°Settings¡± icon in the Applications Task Bar.  Then tap on ¡°Wireless & networks¡± and turn the wireless to ¡°Off¡±.  This will significantly contribute to your battery life.  Remember to turn this setting back on.  You may also access wireless settings by tapping on the ¡°wireless¡± icon in the right hand corner of the top status bar and turn the wireless to ¡°Off¡±.
