Charging your batteries
Ensure to fully charge your battery pack before using your
MeMO Pad in battery mode for extended periods. Remember
that the power adapter charges the battery pack as long as it is
plugged into an AC power source. Be aware that it takes much
longer to charge the battery pack when the MeMO Pad is in
use.
IMPORTANT! Do not leave the MeMO Pad connected to the
power supply once it is fully charged. MeMO Pad is not designed
to be left connected to the power supply for extended periods
of time.
Airplane precautions
Contact your airline provider to learn about related inight
services that can be used and restrictions that must be followed
when using your MeMO Pad in-ight.
IMPORTANT! You can send your MeMO Pad through x-ray
machines (used on items placed on conveyor belts), but do not
expose them from magnetic detectors and wands.
Safety precautions
This MeMO Pad should only be used in enviroments with
ambient temperatures between 0°C (32°F) and 35°C (95°F).
Long time exposure to extremely high or low temperature
may quickly deplete and shorten the battery life. To ensure the
battery’s optimal performance, ensure that it is exposed within
the recommended environment temperature.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to
operate the equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-
located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure
to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not
to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government.
The exposure standard employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specic Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the EUT
transmitting at the specied power level in dierent channels.
The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC is
1.12 W/kg when placed next to the body.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the
FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is
on le with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant
section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID:
MSQK00B.

Driving safely
Never use this device while driving. It is an oence, that while
driving, to hold the device or cradle it in your neck at any point,
during the setup, making or taking text message or any other
data related mobile communication. Use of fully installed car
kits are still permitted, as are the use of alternate handsfree
accessories.
In the interest of safety, we would recommend the use of a
cradle while using any form of handsfree accessory.
While driving, we recommend that you use voicemail wherever
possible, and that you listen to your messages when you are
not in the car. If you must make a handsfree call when driving,
keep it brief.
Do not place objects, including both installed or portable
wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or in the airbag
deployment area. An airbag inates with great force. If the
airbag inates, serious injury could result.
Coating notice
IMPORTANT! To provide electrical insulation and maintain
electrical safety, a coating is applied to insulate the device
except on the areas where the I/O ports are located.

Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your device.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers’ Association recommends
that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained
between a phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations
are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
If you have a pacemaker:
• Always keep your device more than six inches (15cm) from
your pacemaker when turned on.
• Do not carry your device in your breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn your device o immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, call ASUS Customer Service to
discuss alternatives.

Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your device o in healthcare facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment that
could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may aect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You
should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment added
to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Turn your device o where posted notices so require.
Magnetic media
Magnetic elds generated by mobile devices may damage data
on magnetic storage media, such as credit cards, computer
discs or tapes. Do not place your device next to such media.
You should never expose your device to strong magnetic eldsdevice to strong magnetic eldsto strong magnetic elds
as this may cause temporary malfunction.
