Start-up
When switching on your device for the rst time (or when restoring the factory
settings) you will have to select the language and the time zone, and then
connect the device to a Wi-Fi network in order to activate it.
The process of activating your device is necessary to enable certain services,
such as the use of dictionaries, and to be able to receive OTA (Over the Air)
updatings.
You can activate it later by gaining access to the Shop or to Adjustments by
pressing on Activate device. This may also be done from the Library by pressing
on the synchronize button.
Afterwards, you will be able to connect your device to the Shop by creating
a new account or by using an already existing account. All you need for this
process is an electronic mail account and a password. Next, you will be asked
for the details of a banking card, but you can skip this step if you wish.

switching on device and a progress bar will appear on the screen.
To switch off the device, continue pressing the button until a pop-up window
appears; accept it.

If your device becomes blocked at any time, you can forcibly switch
it off by pressing the start/stop button for 20 seconds or by pressing
on the ‘re-set’ indentation (only on the bq Cervantes). Next, press
again to switch on the device normally.
Charging the device
Your bq contains a rechargeable, non-removable Li-ion battery, which is charged
by means of a USB cable connected to a computer or a power supply.
To charge the battery from a computer, connect your reader to it with the USB
cable which is supplied with the device. The charging speed is faster if you
connect the device to a power supply instead of to a computer.
To charge the battery with a power adaptor, insert the end of the micro-USB
cable into the device and the USB end into the AC/DC adaptor, then plug the
adaptor into the electricity.
warning
It is advisable to charge the battery completely, for 8 hours, before
using your bq for the rst time.
