Safety and service
Safety notes
Please read through this section carefully. Following all the instructions will guarantee reliable
operation and years of enjoyment from your new Graphics Pad.
Always keep these instructions near your Graphics Pad for easy reference.
Keep these instructions and packaging safe. Use the original packaging in the event that you
need to ship or transport your Graphics Pad.
Operating safety
•Never open the housing of the Graphics Pad! This could lead to an electrical short-
circuit, damage to your Graphics Pad or fire.
•Never insert any objects through the slits and openings into the inside of the Graphics
Pad. Doing so could lead to an electrical short circuit or damage to your Graphics Pad.
•The device is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervi-
sion.
•Keep packing materials such as foil away from children as there is a danger of suffoca-
tion.
•This Graphics Pad is intended for personal use only and is not intended for commercial
use of any kind.
•Do not press heavily on the digital pen. Doing so may cause damage to the pen refill or
the pen itself resulting in malfunction.
•In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical, unavoidable but com-
pletely harmless smell, which will decline increasingly in the course of time.
We recommend you ventilate the room regularly, to counteract the formation of the
smell.
Point of use
•Keep your Graphics Pad and all connected equipment away from moisture, dust, heat and
direct sunlight in order to avoid malfunctions.

Environment conditions
•The Graphics Pad can be operated at an ambient temperature of 10° C/40° F to
40° C/104° F and a relative humidity of 35% to 80% (not condensing).
•When switched off the Graphics Pad can be stored at temperature from -10° C/14 °F to 60°
C/140°F at a relative humidity of 20 % to 80 % (not condensing).
After transporting your Graphics Pad wait until it has reached room
temperature before turning on. In the event of major variations in the
temperature or humidity, condensation can form on the inside of the
Graphics Pad which can cause an electrical short-circuit.
Electro-magnetic compatibility
•When connecting the Graphics Pad observe the guidelines for electro-magnetic com-
patibility (EMC).
•Maintain a distance of at least 3 feet (~ 1 metre) from sources of high frequency and
magnetic interference (television sets, loudspeakers, mobile telephones, etc.), in order
to avoid malfunctions and data loss.
Connecting
Observe the following instructions to connect your Graphics Pad properly:
•Route the cable so that no one can step on it or stumble over it.
•To avoid damage to the cable do not place any objects or furniture on the cable.
Data security
Every time you update your computer’s data make back-up copies on
an external storage medium, i.e. CDR disc. We cannot assume a liability
for data loss or associated subsequent damage.

Using the Pen
Inserting or changing the battery
When you see disruptions in the input or when strokes are no longer recorded correctly the bat-
tery of the digital pen is almost empty and should be changed.
The pen does not have an on/off-switch. It is activated automatically when it is moved close to
the input surface, and switches off when it is removed from the surface again.
1. Open the battery compartment by
turning the cap at the clip counter
clockwise.
2. Remove the clip and take off the
battery lid.
3. Remove the spent battery and insert
a new AAA battery. Make sure that
the battery end marked "+" points
toward the pen refill and that the
other end marked "-" touches the
contact spring at the back.
4. Put the battery back on, reattach the clip and screw on the cap.
Note:
Read the instructions on the safe handling of batteries starting on page 5.
