Page 7 of 94 Version A00-01
1.1.2 Tablet Mode Your XT2 XFR converts from notebook mode to tablet mode with a 180-degree clockwise twist of the
display’s rotating hinge.
CAUTION: Forcing the hinge beyond the 180-degree point will damage the XT2 XFR.
Open the display of the XT2 XFR
until it reaches a 90-degree angle,
perpendicular to the base.
Brace the base with one hand
on the palm rest, grasp the top
of the display with the other
hand, and turn the rotating
hinge clockwise 180 degrees
until you feel the display engage
securely.
Lay the display assembly on the
base with the display facing
upwards. Press the latch down to
secure the display.
When you convert your XT2 XFR between notebook and tablet modes, the screen orientation of your
XT2 XFR will automatically change according to the settings you have established in the Dell Control
Point System Manager application or the Windows Vista Pen and Tablet settings application, most
commonly from landscape (notebook mode) to portrait (tablet mode).
