Charging the Battery

You can charge your tablet by using the included mains charger or via a USB port on your PC. We recommend charging for a good 8 hours before first use.

Unlocking and Powering On and Off

To Power On press and hold the power button until the screen lights up. To power off hold down the power button until a menu appears asking what you would like to do. To wake the tablet from sleep or put it back to sleep click the power button once.
Unlocking the Screen
You will need to unlock the screen before using your Tablet. To do this, place your finger on the padlock icon and drag towards the other side of the screen.
Locking the Screen
By default the tablet locks itself automatically after 1 minute if unused. To manually lock the screen, press the power button. The screen will go blank and your device will be locked.

Using the Touch Screen

The capacitive touch screen gives a fluid and responsive touch experience without the need to apply pressure to the screen.
• Touch and slide your finger up and down the screen to scroll web
pages.
• Tap an icon to start apps or visit web page links.
• Multi Touch technology allows you to use more than one finger at a
time, for example in the web browser you can pinch to zoom in.

Your tablet can connect to any router that supports the 802.11b/g standard. To connect to your wireless network:
1. Touch Settings, Wireless & Networks then Wi-Fi.
2. Touch the Wi-Fi Off/On toggle.
3. Touch your network name from the list.
4. Input your password.
If you are not sure what your password is it can normally be found on the side/underneath of your router. This is normally case sensitive so please enter it exactly as shown. If you are unsure please call your ISP who should be able to remind you of your password. If you have problems connecting to your Wi-Fi try changing the router security settings to WPA/WPA2.

Connecting to the Internet (3G)

Your tablet can connect to any network that supports 2G or 3G data:
1. Make sure your device is powered off.
2. Open the flap and insert your Sim card chip down, as shown on page 3.
Push it in until it clicks into place. You may need to use a paperclip or pen to help.
