Care and Maintenance
This chapter gives you pointers on how to care for and maintain your Stylistic ST5100 Series Tablet PC.
■Do not remove any screws from the memory upgrade module compartment except the ones specifically shown in the directions for installing and removing the memory upgrade module.
■The memory upgrade module can be severely damaged by electrostatic dis- charge (ESD). To minimize risk to the module, observe the following precau- tions:
■Before docking or undocking your system (when using a Tablet Dock), it is good practice to always touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity built up in your body.
■Before handling a memory module, touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity built up in your body.
■When installing or removing a memory module, hold it by the edge so as not to touch any contacts or chips. Be careful not to touch any internal computer terminals or components; the oil from your fingers could cause a short to the components.
■Be sure to power down your system before adding or removing memory modules. Even if the system is in hibernate or standby states, data could be lost or the memory could be damaged if power is still available to the system.

PROTECTING THE DISPLAY SCREEN
The Stylistic ST5100 Series Tablet PC is designed to provide you with years of service. Using a screen protector will help ensure the screen remains as clear as possible. When installed, the screen protector becomes a durable, replaceable writing surface that protects the display screen from abrasion.
To obtain additional screen protectors, use Fujitsu part number FPCSP08AP
During normal use of the Tablet PC, small particles from the environment can become embedded in the pen tip and scratch the screen. To prevent scratching the screen, ensure that a screen protector is installed before using your Tablet PC. The warranty does not cover a scratched screen.
To install a new screen protector on your Tablet PC:
1.If a screen protector is already installed on the display screen, remove it before installing the new screen protector.
The screen protector is held onto the display screen surface by a thin strip of adhesive around the edges. A notch in one corner of the screen protector allows you to slide your fingernail under the screen protector for easy removal.
