  Caring for the L10 Tablet

Caring for the Pen 

If you use an active (digitizer) pen with your tablet:

 

 

Store the active (digitizer) pen in the pen holder when not in use. 

Avoid storing the pen vertically on its tip. It can damage the pen-to-digitizer function. 

Keep the pen away from any liquid, because the pen contains electronic components that 
can be damaged when wet. 

In certain environments, particles or debris can stick to the pen tip or the tablet display. 
Make sure you wipe off the pen with a soft cloth to avoid scratching the display. 

If you need a new active pen or a stylus tip kit, check the 

Accessories

 page for the L10 

tablet on the Xplore web site. Open the 

Input Devices

 section to see the pens and the 

Stylus Tip Kit for tip replacement. There art two passive pens as well. Check with your 
authorized reseller to order. 

If you use a capacitive pen with your tablet, the pens are listed on the 

Accessories

 page in the 

Input 

Devices

 section. 

Cleaning the Fingerprint Reader 

Under normal circumstances, you should clean the fingerprint reader once a month, or whenever 
necessary.  

To clean the fingerprint reader, gently rub the sensor surface with the cloth that is included with the 
tablet or any microfiber cloth. 

You can use a small amount of alcohol or warm soapy water from time to time to clean the reader 
surface. Dry it off after cleaning. 

Warning: 

Don’t use bleach, solvents, or abrasives.    

Conditioning the Battery 

To maximize the performance of the battery, condition the battery once a month. To condition it, run 
the tablet on battery power until the battery’s charge level drops below 20%. Then use AC power 
until it is fully charged.
