introduction
Welcome to the OQO model 02 computer. The model 02 is a
full-featured Windows XP computer that gives you the total
productivity you need to fulfill your personal and professional
requirements.
mobility
The model 02 is the world’s smallest Windows Vista™
Capable computer. Its mobile form factor allows you to take it
anywhere and its ergonomic design facilitates usability on the
go. Because the model 02 uses the Windows XP operating
system, you have uncompromised access to software
applications and seamless connectivity – anytime, anywhere
– via WiFi, Ethernet, Bluetooth®, or Wireless Wide Area
Network (WWAN) technology.
flexibility
While you’re on the go, the model 02 is your standalone,
handheld computer with its own integrated keyboard, track
stick, and capacitive TouchScrollers. The rugged, magnesium
alloy chassis with shock mounted hard drive and active drop
detect technology helps protect your data in the event your
model 02 is dropped. At the office, the model 02 functions
as your desktop computer connected to an external monitor,
keyboard, and mouse. Also available is an array of accessories
and a docking station that provides additional usage modes.
power
The model 02 was designed to deliver the total computing
performance necessary to achieve personal and professional
productivity, anytime and anywhere. The model 02 – with its
robust processing power, Windows XP operating system,
application compatibility, memory and storage capacity, and
unparalleled connectivity options – is everything you need to
meet your total productivity requirements.

powering up and down
Your model 02 ships with a screen protector and battery
attached.
To turn on your model 02, press the power button located on
the left side of the computer. When idle, conserve battery
power by putting your computer in Standby or Hibernate mode.
To charge the battery, connect the power supply to the model
02 as shown at right, and then plug into an outlet. The battery
will charge whenever the computer is connected to an outlet.
standby mode
Standby mode reduces the power consumption of your
computer by cutting power to non-critical hardware
components. The system maintains power to your computer’s
random access memory (RAM), which allows the system to
quickly restore your active applications and files.
To put your computer into Standby mode, press the power
button.
hibernate mode
Hibernate mode saves your current system state to the
hard disk drive and then powers down your computer. When
you power up again, your open files and applications are re-
stored just as you left them. Hibernate mode draws no power
and is best for conserving battery life and changing batteries.
To put your computer into Hibernate mode, select ‘Shut Down’
from the Start menu and choose the ‘Hibernate’ option or
press the ‘H’ key on your keyboard.
conserving battery power
Additional ways to conserve battery power include:
Turn off wireless radios when not in use.
Turn off the keyboard backlight.
Lower the internal display brightness.
Adjust power settings in the Power Options control panel.

removing and attaching the battery
On the model 02, a fully charged battery typically provides 2 to
3 hours of operating time depending on usage. Double capacity
batteries that provide up to 6 hours of charge are also available
at http://www.oqo.com/store.
charging the battery
A battery fuel gauge is located on the right side of the battery.
When pressed and released, the fuel gauge will illuminate to
indicate remaining battery power. While the battery is charging,
the fuel gauge lights flash in sequence.
A standalone battery detached from the model 02 can be
charged using a battery charging adapter (optional accessory)
with your power supply.
removing the battery
Before replacing the battery, the computer should be plugged
into an outlet, shut down, or placed in Hibernate mode.
Removal of the battery while in Standby mode may result in
loss of user and system data.
To remove the battery, press the battery release button located
next to the power button and lift the battery away from the
computer.
attaching the battery
To attach the battery, rest the battery hooks in the slots
alongside the back edge of the computer before lowering
the battery onto the computer. Press the battery against the
computer until the latch clicks.

using the thumb keyboard and track stick
When using your model 02 as a handheld computer, use the
thumb keyboard and track stick for input and navigation.
using the thumb keyboard
Slide the screen upward to reveal the keyboard and track stick.
The keyboard can be backlit to accommodate use in low light
conditions. To turn the backlighting on or off, press the key
sequence:
The mouse buttons are located on the left edge of the key-
board. Use the top mouse button to left-click and the bottom
mouse button to right-click. You can control the mouse pointer
by moving the track stick with your thumb.
SmartLock™ keys
The OQO keyboard has four SmartLock keys: shift (SHIFT),
function (FN), control (CTL), and alt (ALT). These modifier keys
let you input key combinations by pressing them sequentially
instead of simultaneously.
Press a SmartLock key once and the LED next to it will start
to pulse. The next key you press will be modified. Press a
SmartLock key twice to lock it, and the LED will remain solid.
All subsequent key presses will be modified until you press the
SmartLock key a third time to unlock it and the LED turns off.
The model 02 provides a number of custom keyboard
shortcuts for quick access to functions using SmartLock
keys. Keyboard shortcuts are described in the diagram to
the right. For example, on a regular keyboard, you press 3
keys (CTL, ALT, and DEL) simultaneously to pull up Windows
Task Manager (default if your computer is not connected to a
network domain). On the model 02 you can simply press the
SmartLock key sequence below to perform the same
function:

screen features
Your model 02 features a 5-inch Wide VGA LCD screen for
readability indoors and outdoors. The computer automatically
adjusts screen brightness using a sensor to detect ambient
light. To manually increase and decrease screen brightness, use
the keyboard shortcuts:
The native screen resolution is set to 800 x 480 pixels. You can
increase the resolution and adjust many other display settings
in the Display control panel. You can also rotate the display by
pressing the keyboard shortcut:
Zoom in and zoom out keys are located in the bottom left
corner of the keyboard. To pan around the screen while in a
zoomed mode, move the mouse pointer towards the screen
edge in the desired direction.
capacitive TouchScrollers
Capacitive TouchScrollers are embedded in the lower right
corner of the screen frame. To scroll horizontally or vertically
within an application window, slide your thumb along the
scrollers.
digital pen
The display is also equipped with a digitizer that accepts input
from a digital pen (optional accessory for Windows XP Home or
Professional). Use the digital pen as follows:
To select an object, tap the object with the tip of the pen.
To double-click an object, quickly tap it twice.
To right-click an object, select it and click the button on the
digital pen.
Before using the digital pen you should first calibrate the pen
to the display. Use the Pen Tablet applet in the Control Panel
to calibrate the pen and adjust user preferences. Use only
light pressure with the pen. The angle of the pen will affect its
behavior, and it should be calibrated at the angle which feels
most natural to you. More information on the pen can be found
at http://www.oqo.com/support.
