about the Touchscreen

Your tablet comes equipped with an easy-to-use touch­screen which allows access to the tablet’s functions. Use

your nger tip (or a stylus) to touch the area of the screen

where a control icon is displayed. If you touch and hold
the screen, it will register as a continuous button press.

To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it

with excessive force or with any object other

than your nger or a stylus. For best response,

make sure your hands are clean before using

the touchscreen controls.

Using the Stylus

A stylus is included for your convenience. You can use
the tip of the stylus to make precise selections on the
touchscreen.

The stylus tip is protected by a cap. Unscrew the cap 
before using the stylus.

The stylus can extend for comfortable use, or retract 
for storage.

The stylus has a loop attachment. You can use the 
loop to x the stylus to the included case (or a conve­nient location of your choosing). To do so:

Protective Film

A thin lm has been applied to the touchscreen to protect
it during shipping. The protective lm should be removed
before use. To remove it, simply take a corner of the lm

and peel it away from the screen

Unscrew the cap from the stylus.a.
Thread the loop underneath the clasp on the b.

case.
Thread the cap over the clasp and through the c.

loop.
Pull the cap through to secure it to the clasp.d.
Screw the cap to the stylus.e.

Touchscreen Actions

You can control the functions of the tablet by using
the touchscreen in combination with the three touch
keys located on the bezel. To control the tablet with the

touchscreen, use your ngertip or stylus to manipulate

icons, buttons, menu items, the onscreen keyboard, and
other items displayed on the screen.

You can perform the following actions on the touchscreen

using your ngertip or stylus.

Touch: To activate an on-screen item (e.g.,

application icons, buttons, menu
items, and the letter/symbols of the
on-screen keyboard), simply touch

them with your ngertip or stylus.

Touch and
Hold:

Some on-screen items have an
alternate action if you touch and hold
it (e.g., opening an alternate menu, or
to activate the drag function). To touch
and hold an item, touch the item and

do not lift your ngertip/stylus until the

action occurs.

Drag: Drag an on-screen item to change its

position (e.g., an application icon on
the home screen).

To drag an item, touch and hold it for
a moment, then without lifting your

ngertip/stylus, move your ngertip/

stylus on the screen until the item
reaches its target destination.

Swipe: Swipe up/down on the screen to scroll

through a list. On some screens,
you may be able to swipe left/right to
change the view.

To swipe, touch the screen and then

quickly move your ngertip/stylus

across the screen without lifting your

ngertip/stylus. Do not pause on the
screen with your ngertip/stylus at

the intial point of contact or you may
accidentally drag an item instead.

English

Double-tap: Quickly tap the screen twice on a

webpage or other application screen to
zoom (the application must support the
double-tap/zoom function). Within the
browser, double-tapping a webpage
section will cause the browser to zoom

and t that section to the width of the

screen.

about the orientation Sensor

The tablet contains a sensor that will automatically
change the orientation of most screens as you rotate the
tablet. The sensor works best when the tablet is rotated
perpendicular to the ground (i.e., when the tablet is held

upright and not at on its back).

The orientation sensor can be turned on an off in the
Sound & display settings menu.

Before using the tablet, the battery should be charged
fully. The Status Indicator will light green when the bat­tery is charged fully.

To charge the battery:

Plug one end of the included power adapter into an 1.
AC 100-240V outlet.

Plug the other end of the included power adapter into 2.
the Power jack on the tablet.

Disconnect the power adapter when the tablet is fully 3.

The Status Indicator will light orange when the

tablet is charging. The Status Indicator will light

The battery used in this device may present a re

or chemical burn if mistreated. Do not disassemble,

incinerate, or heat the device. Do not leave the de-

vice in a place subject to direct sunlight, or in a car

with its windows closed. Do not connect the device

to a power source other than that which is indicated
here or on the label as this may result in the risk of

re or electric shock.

memory card into the SD/SDHC card slot to:

Increase the memory capacity of your tablet 

Play media les stored on the memory card (e.g., 

Page 13 Getting To Know The Mid7005

English

To insert a memory card:

To release and remove a memory card:

Align the memory card with the card slot. The metal 1.
contacts of the memory card should face up towards
the LCD screen.

Slide the card into the spring-loaded slot. Push the 2.
card in until it clicks into place.

Do not attempt to insert objects other than an

SD or SDHC memory card into the card slot. A
compatible memory card should t easily into

the card slot; if you encounter resistance, check

the alignment of the card. Do not attempt to
force the card in.

Avoid touching the gold contacts of the memory

card.

Make sure that the write protection switch on the

memory card is set to the “unlocked” position.

Push the card further into the slot until you hear a 1.
click. The card will spring out of the slot.

Grasp the card by its edge to remove it.2.

To avoid damage and data corruption, do not

remove a memory card while data is being being

written to or read from the card. For example, do
not remove a card while playing a music le
stored on the card.
