iPad Basics — Hardware Information 21 2010-12-09 Screen Rotation Lock with iOS 4.2 Beginning with iOS 4.2, the screen rotation lock is enabled via the screen orientation lock control. Double-click the Home button, then place your finger on one of the icons at the bottom of the screen and swipe to the right. The screen orientation lock, brightness slider, and iPod controls appear. For more information on enabling rotation lock, refer to http://support.apple.com/kb/ HT4085: iPad: Understanding screen rotation lock.
iPad Basics — Hardware Information 22 2010-12-09 Ambient Light Sensor The ambient light sensor detects light levels at the current location and adjusts the brightness of the Multi-Touch display. The approximate location of the ambient light sensor is circled and marked in orange: Troubleshooting Notes: • Make sure the ambient light sensor is not being blocked or covered. Screen brightness can be affected by a screen protector, especially if it covers the ambient light sensor. • The ambient light sensor can be defeated using the Settings application. • The iBooks application includes a screen brightness slider that overrides the iPad screen brightness (but only when iBooks is running). Note: There is a slight delay of a few seconds before the screen adjusts to ambient light (this is by design, it is not intended to be instantaneous). • Isolate applications that might modify the screen brightness on the iPad and if unsure what application might be the cause, restore the iPad to see if it fixes the problem (restoring the iPad will remove all 3rd party applications from the device and reset the unit back to factory default settings).
iPad Basics — Hardware Information 23 2010-12-09 Liquid Contact Indicators The iPad warranty excludes coverage for damage caused by liquid. To help determine if an iPad has been in contact with liquid, two liquid contact indicators (LCIs) are installed on the iPad at the following locations: • At the bottom of the headphone jack • In the 30-pin connector port (requires holding the product at a 45 degree angle to view) Use a lighted otoscope to look into the headphone jack and 30-pin connector slot for activated LCIs. They turn red on contact with liquid. Micro-SIM Card For cellular data, iPad WiFi + 3G uses a micro-SIM card. Changing cellular data carriers for an iPad WiFi + 3G requires changing the mico-SIM card. Note: iPhone SIM cards are not compatible with iPad WiFi + 3G and are physically larger than iPad micro-SIM cards. Micro-SIM Service Strategy Micro-SIM cards are replaceable by the cellular carrier. If iPad WiFi + 3G requires a SIM replacement, refer the customer to the carrier. Micro-SIM Tray The SIM tray is available as a service part, 922-9553.
iPad Basics — Hardware Information 24 2010-12-09 Removing the Micro-SIM Card When troubleshooting iPad WiFi + 3G connectivity, you may need to remove the micro-SIM card to check for damage or other issues. To remove the card, do the following: 1. Insert the end of the SIM eject tool into the hole on the SIM tray. 2. Press firmly and push the tool straight in until the tray pops out. (If you don’t have a SIM eject tool, you can use the end of a paper clip.) 3. Pull out the SIM tray and remove the micro-SIM card from the tray.
