Getting Started

Connecting to a Wireless Network

Your tablet works best when it is connected to the Internet. Connect to a wireless network to experience the best that your tablet has to offer. To learn how to connect to a wireless network, refer to the section “Connecting to Wi-Fi Networks”.

Using the Touchscreen

Use your fingers to manipulate icons, buttons, menus, the onscreen keyboard, and other items on the touchscreen. You can also change the screen's orientation.

To select or activate something, tap it gently with your finger. To type something (e.g., a name, password, or a website address), just

tap where you want to type. A keyboard will appear on the screen; tap the keyboard to type.

Other common gestures include:

1. Tap & Hold: Tap an item & hold your finger over it until an action

occurs. Do not lift your finger from the screen.

2. Tap & Drag: Tap an item & hold your finger over it for a moment;

then, without lifting your finger, drag your finger along the screen until you reach the target position. Try using Tap & Drag to reposition icons on the Home screen.

3. Swipe or slide: Slide your finger quickly across the surface of the

screen. Do not pause when your finger first touches the screen to avoid dragging ite ms accidentally. Swipe up or down to browse a list of items, or try swiping left or right on a Home screen to view other Home screens.

4. Pinch-to-Zoom: In some apps (such as Browser and Gallery), you

can zoom in and out by placing two fingers on the screen at once and pinching them together (to zoom out) or spreading them apart (to zoom in).

5. Rotate the Screen: On most screens, the orientation of the display

will automatically rotate with your tablet as you turn it. You can change this option from the Display setting screen.

Important Screen lock options are liste d in the approximate order of the
