Setting Up Your Sahara NetSlate

Please read the following steps to help you begin using your new Sahara NetSlate Tablet PC. 
Refer to the chapter 

Getting Started

 in the User’s Guide for more detailed information.

Step 1: Insert the Battery Pack

Turn the tablet over and place it, screen down on a solid, clean, flat surface to prevent damag-
ing the touch screen. The included slip case works well for this.
Align the battery pack into the battery compartment and then slide it into the computer until 
it clicks securely into place.
Slide the battery-locking tab (the tab closest to the top of the tablet) in the opposite direction 
of the unlocking arrow engraved on the tab itself. Once the locking tab clicks into position, 
the battery should be securely seated.

 Please be sure to check that the System Restore Disc matches the Operating System (OS) installed on 

your Sahara NetSlate. There will not be a System Restore Disc included if you ordered your Tablet PC 

without an OS option. Some units may include a restore image on the internal hard drive in addition to, 

or in lieu of, a restore disc.
