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 av oid 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.
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
Using the Stylus
A stylus is included for your convenience and is the
preferred method for interacting with the tablet. You can
use the tip of the stylus to make precise selections on the
touchscreen.
The stylus is stored in the top left corner of the tablet.
Return the stylus to its storage compartment when it is
not in use.
Using Your Finger Tip
The touchscreen is designed for
precision and responds best when
touched with the smallest point
possible.
Use the tip of your ngernail to
touch the screen. The hard, curved
edge of the ngernail makes contact
with the touchscreen at a small
point, allowing for much greater
precision than if you were to use the
at pad of your nger.
Touchscreen Actions
You can control the functions of the tablet by using the
touchscreen. 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.
Page 10 Getting To Know The Mid7015
English
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 initial point of contact or you may
accidentally drag an item instead.
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.
Page 11 Getting To Know The Mid7015
English
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.
Charging the Tablet
The tablet comes with a built-in rechargeable lithiumpolymer battery.
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:

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.
