7 1 0 R K 2.2 Notes Before Use Before using your device, please read through the following instructions Use only the power adapter that comes with your device. Using a different power adapter may cause damage. The AC power cord is designed for the RTC-710RK only. This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Adapter or DC power source, rated 12Vdc, 3A minimum, Tma = 40C. Please contact AAEON for further assistance. Using a power outlet is the best way to charge your device (refer to section 1.2 for the power adapters voltage output and acceptable input). When using the device for the first time, fully charge the battery for up to 8 hours. If the device is inactive, charging the battery once per month is recommended to prevent battery life deterioration. There are two batteries in the RTC-710RK: Both batteries can be monitored at the title bar). Charge the device once Hot-swappable battery drops below 20%. Always allow your battery to be fully charged before use. To prolong battery life, allow a fully charged battery to discharge more than 95% before recharging. Ensure that the battery cover is properly secured by manually pushing the pin to lock position. The RTC-710RK CANNOT be charged via an USB connection. The IP65 waterproof protection may get damaged when subjected to shock greater than levels tested in MIL-STD-810G Method 516.6 Procedure IV. The protection may also be affected if the rubber connector fails to cover or close firmly. Chapter 2 Getting Started 11 2.3 Turning on the Device The power button turns your device on and off. Hold the button for one second to power on. To start or wake from sleep mode, hold the power button for 0.5 seconds until the shutdown confirmation is shown. If the system remains unresponsive, press and hold the power button to force power off (may result in data loss). It is strongly recommended that the user back up important data regularly. Insert the Battery Pack and make sure the battery cover is securely locked. The initial booting sequence may take several minutes to complete. R u g g e d T a b e t l C o m p u t e r R T C
