Non-Removable Battery
Your tablet has an internal, rechargeable battery that should be replaced
only by LG or an authorized LG repair center. You should never try to open
or take apart this tablet yourself. Opening the tablet can cause damage that
will void your warranty.
Charging your tablet
A rechargeable battery is used to power your tablet. Charge the battery
using the USB cable (power cord) and the charger (power outlet adapter)
included with your tablet. Make sure to fully charge the battery before
using your tablet for the first time.
WARNING! If the touchscreen won't function while the tablet’s in the process of charging, this
1. Connect the USB cable to the charging head.
2. Insert the other end of the USB cable into the charging port.
may be due to an unstable power supply. If this occurs, disconnect the USB Cable
from the tablet or unplug the Charger from the power outlet.

3. Plug the charger into an electrical outlet.
TIP! Use only an approved charging accessory to charge your tablet. Improper handling of the
charging port, as well as the use of an incompatible charger, may cause damage to your
tablet and void the warranty.

The Basics
Optimizing Battery Life
You can extend your battery’s life between charges by turning off features
that you don’t need to run constantly in the background. You can also
monitor how applications and system resources consume battery power.
To extend the life of your battery
Turn off radio communications that you aren’t using, such as Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth, or GPS.
Turn off automatic syncing for Gmail™, Calendar, Contacts, and other
apps.
Some apps you’ve downloaded may consume high amounts of battery
power. While using your downloaded apps, check the battery charge
level and monitor the battery usage.
Lower the screen brightness setting and set a shorter screen timeout.
NOTE Allowing other devices to use your tablet's hotspot connection will also drain your
battery more quickly.
To view the battery charge level
1. From the Home screen, tap Apps (in the Quick Access Bar) >
Settings > About tablet > Battery.
NOTE Settings are displayed in a split-screen format with the menus on the left and
corresponding selections on the right.
2. The battery status (charging or discharging) and percent of remaining
charge are displayed at the top right side of the screen.
To monitor and control what uses the battery
1. From the Home screen, tap Apps (in the Quick Access Bar) >
Settings > About tablet > Battery > Battery use.
2. The right side of the screen displays battery usage details and includes a
usage graph as well as a list of apps or services using battery power
from greatest amount to least.
The Basics
Installing the SIM card*
NOTE If not already inserted, follow the instructions below to insert your 4G LTE SIM card.
1. To install the SIM card, locate and open the cover to the slot and gently

2. Insert the 4G LTE SIM card into the tray with the Verizon logo face up.
Push the tray back into the slot until it “clicks” into place and close the
cover.
* A Subscriber Identity Module (SIM Card) is a “smartcard” that houses personal
information, such as your mobile phone number, calling plan, and account
information, such as contacts, text messages, and call history. The Verizon Wireless
4G LTE SIM Card is compatible with any Verizon Wireless 4G LTE certified device.
The 4G LTE SIM Card can move from one device to another and your wireless
service will support the services that are compatible with your new device and
service plan. To see which devices are compatible with the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE
SIM Card, visit verizonwireless.com/certifieddevice.

other icons.
Touch and hold
Touch and hold an item on the screen by touching it and not lifting your
finger until an action occurs. For example, to open a contact’s available
options, touch and hold the contact in the Contacts list until the context
menu opens.
Drag
Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your finger,
move your finger on the screen until you reach the target position. For
example, you can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.
Swipe, slide, or flick
Move your finger quickly across the surface of the screen, without pausing
when you first touch it (so you don’t drag an item instead). For example,
you can browse through the different Home screens by swiping to the left
or right, slide the screen up or down to scroll through a list, or remove an
application from the Recent Apps screen by flicking its graphic off the
screen.
Double-tap
Tap the screen twice quickly to zoom, highlight text, or turn the screen on/
off. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a webpage to adjust that
section to fit the width of the screen and zoom in and out when viewing a

screen lock, then select the screen lock you want to use. You are
prompted to create a Backup PIN as a safety measure in case you forget
your screen unlock sequence.
None: No lock screen is enabled so the screen will never be locked from use.
Swipe: A swipe motion in any direction on the touchscreen unlocks the
screen. This is the default Lock screen.
Face Unlock: Face recognition unlocks the screen. The tablet captures your
image to identify you. Keep in mind that Face Unlock is less secure than a
pattern, PIN, or password because it uses generalized shape and dimension
to verify your face.
Pattern: A pattern you draw with your finger unlocks the screen. The first
time you set an unlock pattern, you’ll see a tutorial with instructions on how
to create it. Read the tutorial, then tap Next. Draw your pattern (connect at
least 4 dots), then tap Continue. Draw your pattern again, then tap
Confirm.

The Basics
PIN: A number sequence unlocks the screen. Enter a PIN (at least 4 digits),
then tap Continue. Enter your PIN again, then tap OK to confirm it.
Password: An alphanumeric sequence unlocks the screen. Enter a
password (at least 4 characters), then tap Continue. Enter your password
again, then tap OK to confirm it.
From then on, any time you want to unlock the screen, you will need to
perform the unlock action you set (swipe, face recognition, pattern, PIN, or
password) to gain access to it.
CAUTION Create a Google Account before setting a screen lock and remember the Backup PIN
you created so you minimize the risk of needing to perform a hard reset which will
delete your personal data.
When you can’t recall your Pattern, PIN, or Password
If you can’t remember your unlock sequence, tap Forgot pattern? at the
bottom of the screen, then you can unlock the tablet using your Google
Account (if you activated it on the tablet) or your Backup PIN that you
created when you set up the screen lock sequence.
Enter your Google Account username and password, then tap Sign in.
Enter your Backup PIN, then tap OK.
Unlock sequence attempts
You have 10 attempts to successfully enter your unlock sequence.
After 5 attempts, you are prompted to manually enter text to verify that
you are trying to unlock the screen (it's not just random movements
touching the screen).
After 10 attempts, the tablet will automatically perform a hard reset and
erase all of the user data stored on the tablet.
NOTE A warning message is displayed after the 9th attempt.
If you didn’t activate a Google Account on the tablet and you forgot your
Backup PIN, you have to perform a hard reset.
CAUTION If you perform a hard reset, all user applications and user data will be deleted from
your tablet's memory.
