Step 2: Connect the Sahara Slate PC to an External Power Source
Locate the AC adapter and the power cord. Plug the power cord securely into the AC adapter.
Plug the AC adapter’s connection cable into the “DC In” port on the top side of the Sahara Slate PC.
Once the adapter plug is securely in place, plug the power cord into an external power socket.
IMPORTANT: You should allow the battery pack(s) to charge fully before disconnecting the Sahara Slate
PC and running it on battery power for the first time.
NOTE: When you first connect the Sahara Slate PC into an external power source, the battery charge
indicator(s) will begin to glow orange. When the battery is fully charged the indicator(s) will turn green.
See the section later in this guide and in the User’s Guide entitled Battery Care for tips on maximizing
battery life and performance.
Step 3: Connect Applicable Peripherals and Networking Cables
If you would like to use any external peripherals with the tablet (i.e. USB mouse, USB keyboard,
etc.), or are planning to connect to the Internet and/or a corporate LAN using a wired
connection (RJ45), as opposed to wirelessly, connect them now.
Step 4: Power on the Sahara Slate PC
Locate the three power switches on the top of the tablet. The switch is the computer’s main
power toggle. Slide and hold it until it emits a blue glow (about 3 seconds) and then release it.
The Sahara Slate PC will now boot up.
Step 5: Complete the Operating System Installation
When your system powers on for the first time, you may be prompted to enter your Windows
product key to complete set-up. The key can be found on the C.O.A. sticker located on the back
of the system underneath the battery pack in battery bay one (
). You will then be asked to
agree to Microsoft's licensing terms.
Plug the power cord into the DC In jack on the
top of the tablet.
Plug the power cord into the AC adapter brick
and then into a wall outlet.
Locate the system Power switch on the top of
the tablet.
Slide and hold it for about two - three seconds
until it glows blue and the system powers up.
