Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure you are connected to a stable Wi-Fi 6 network to take full advantage of the improved connectivity speeds. Upon first boot, follow the Windows on-screen instructions to set up your account. If you need to install software outside of the Microsoft Store, you will need to navigate to the Windows settings to switch out of 'S mode'. For long-term care, clean the screen with a dry, microfiber cloth and avoid using harsh chemicals. Keep the vents clear of dust to ensure optimal airflow, and try to keep the battery level between 20% and 80% to preserve its lifespan over time. Use a 45W or 65W USB-C charger for optimal rapid charging results.
