Transportation Precautions To prepare the Eee PC for transport, you should close the display panel to protect the keyboard and display panel. The Eee PC's surface is easily dulled if not properly cared for. Be careful not to rub or scrape surfaces when transporting your Eee PC. You can put your Eee PC in a carrying case for protection from dirt, water, shock, and scratches. For the model that comes with a hard disk drive, you should turn it OFF and disconnect all external peripherals to prevent damage to the connectors when you prepare for transport.The hard disk drive's head retracts when the power is turned OFF to prevent scratching of the hard disk surface during transport. Never transport it while the power is still ON. Charging Your Batteries If you intend to use battery power, be sure to fully charge your battery pack and any optional battery packs before going on long trips. Remember that the power adapter charges the battery pack as long as it is plugged into the computer and an AC power source. Be aware that it takes much longer to charge the battery pack when the Eee PC is in use. Remember to fully charge the battery (8 hours or more) before first use and whenever it is depleted to prolong battery life.The battery reaches its maximmum capacity after a few full charging and discharging cycles. 1-6 Chapter 1: Introducing the Eee PC
