Notebook Mode

Your Tablet-PC can be used either in notebook mode or tablet mode. To use your Tablet-PC in notebook mode, open the display until it reaches a comfortable viewing angle as in the image to the right, and use the keyboard and display as you would those of any other notebook computer.

Tablet Mode

Your Tablet-PC 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 Tablet-PC.

Open the display of the Tablet-PC 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, following the directional arrow inscribed on the hinge cover, 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.

When you convert your Tablet-PC between notebook and tablet modes, the screen orientation of your Tablet-PC 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).
