Traveling with your C5t/F5t Tablet PC
Use the following tips when you travel with your C5t/F5t Tablet PC:
• Put the Tablet PC in a case to protect the display. Motion Computing sells a variety of
cases for the C5t/F5t. You can purchase one at the Motion Computing Accessories page.
• Store the pen in the pen holder located on the back side of the tablet handle.
• Pack the Tablet PC securely in a briefcase or hand-carried luggage and keep it separate
from toiletries, liquids, and food. Don’t pack it in checked luggage.
• Before extended use in the field or long trips away from AC power, adjust the power
properties to maximize battery conservation. See Changing the power plan on page 45.
• For international travel, use the appropriate adapters for your destination’s electrical
outlets. You don’t need to buy a voltage converter; the Motion AC adapter will
automatically adjust to different voltages.
• You may want to carry proof of ownership or a merchandise passport when traveling
internationally.
• Consult your insurance and credit card companies to learn about emergency travel
assistance in case your Tablet PC becomes lost or disabled.
