You can use your RBT (Rugged Business Tablet) under a wide range of environmental
conditions. However, to ensure long use and continued high performance, consider the
following factors when setting up your RBT:
 Follow all warnings and instructions noted in this documentation and in the Android™ Help
program.
 The input voltage range between the wall outlet and this adapter is AC 100V–240V, and
the output voltage of this adapter is DC 12V, 2A.
 The first time you use your RBT, we recommend that you carefully read the Making
Connections section of this manual and initialize the battery to ensure optimum battery
performance.
 Unplug the RBT from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do

 On the base or rear panel of this RBT, there is a label with information on the power
requirements of this system. These requirements must be followed. If you are unsure of
your local power supply, consult your dealer or local Power Company.
 Do not step on or place anything on the power cord.
 If you use the RBT with an extension cord, ensure that the total ampere ratings of all the
devices sharing the extension do not exceed the rating of the extension cord or the rating
of the wall outlet.
 Never push foreign objects into the RBT through any of the slots or openings. Dangerous
voltages are present, which could cause electric shock or fire, or damage sensitive
components.
FCC Warning Statement
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, TB100 may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation in the following measures:
 Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
 Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
 Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
 Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

TaiwanNCC Warning Statement
交通部電信總局低功率電波輻射性電機管理辦法 (930322)
根據交通部低功率管理辦法規定：
第十二條 經型式認證合格之低功率射頻電機，非經許可，公司、商號或使用者均不得擅自變更
頻率、加大功率或變更原設計之特性及功能。
第十四條 低功率射頻電機之使用不得影響飛航安全及干擾合法通信；經發現有干擾現象時，應
立即停用，並改善至無干擾時方得繼續使用。前項合法通信，指依電信法規定作業之
無線電通信。
低功率射頻電機須忍受合法通信或工業、科學及醫療用電波輻射性電機設備之干擾。
Battery Charging Notice
It is important to consider the environment temperature when the Lithium-Ion battery pack is
charged. Charging is most efficient at normal room temperature or in a slightly cooler
environment. It is essential that batteries are charged within the stated range of 0°C to 40°C.
Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and shorten their
charging life cycle.
CAUTION!
Do not charge batteries at a temperature lower than 0°C. This will increase the internal
resistance to cause heat and make the batteries unstable and unsafe. Please use a battery
temperature-detecting device for a charger to ensure a safe charging temperature range.
Storage and Safety Notice
Although charged Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity
may be depleted due to build up of internal resistance. If this happens they will require
recharging prior to use. Lithium-Ion batteries may be stored at temperatures between -20°C to
60°C, however they may deplete more rapidly at higher temperatures. It is recommended to
store batteries at room temperature.
Warranty
The following items covered under the Unitech Limited Warranty are free from defects during
normal use:
 TB100 – 1-year limited warranty.
 Built-in Lithium-Ion battery – 6-month limited warranty.
Warranty becomes void if equipment is modified, improperly installed or used, damaged by
accident or neglect, or if any parts are improperly installed or replaced by the user.
Use only the adapter supplied. Using the wrong adapter may damage the unit and will void the
warranty.

Quick Start
Turning on the Rugged Business Tablet for the First Time
 Use only the power adapter that comes with your device. Using a different power adapter
may damage your device.
 Using the provided power adapter to connect the TB100 to a power outlet is the best way
to charge it.
 The input voltage range between the wall outlet and this adapter is AC 100V–240V, and
the output voltage of this adapter is DC 12V, 2A.
 When using the TB100 for the first time, fully charge the battery for up to 8 hours to
prolong battery life and whenever the battery power is depleted.
 If the computer does not provide enough power to charge the TB100, use the wall outlet
instead.
 The TB100 CANNOT be charged via the USB port on the computer.
Note: The battery is not fully charged. Allow your battery to fully charge before using it (i.e.,
before disconnecting AC power). Calibrating the battery before use is also highly
recommended.
The power button turns your RBT on and off. Hold the button for two seconds to power on. To
start or wake it up from sleep mode, hold the power button for 0.5 seconds to display the
shutdown confirmation. If the system is unresponsive, hold the power button to power off. A
forced power off may result in data loss. It is strongly recommended that important data is
backed up on a regular basis.
